Prosciutto and Melon (Italian Appetizer)
Report
Prosciutto and melon is the quintessential Italian summer appetizer, one of the most popular and characteristic combinations in Italian cuisine.A few high quality ingredients skillfully combined. The delicate, paper-thin slices of Italian prosciutto perfectly complement the juicy sweetness of ripe melon. In just a few minutes, you can enjoy an exceptional treat!

Ingredients
- 1 melon large or two small cantalupe
- 200 g Proscitto crudo (Parma ham) about 10-12 slices
Instructions
- Wash and dry the melon. On a cutting board, cut the melon in half. With the help of a spoon, remove all the seeds in the center.
- Cut the melon into slices neither too big nor too small. Typically, a medium melon will yield 8 slices.
- Arrange the melon slices on a serving dish.
- Place the prosciutto slices next to or on top of the melon and serve. Depending on the presentation you want to make, you may or may not want to remove the skin from each slice.
- You can serve the melon in slices, chunks, or balls.
Notes
- PLEASE NOTE: We have assumed two or three slices of melon per person. Of course, the amount depends on the size of the melon and especially on how you will use it. If you are making an appetizer or an aperitif, this will be enough. On the other hand, if you are using it as a cool summer lunch, you may want to consider larger doses of both prosciutto and melon.
