When the heat of summer hits my kitchen, the last thing I want to do is turn on the stove. That’s when I turn to simple no-bake recipes. One of my favorite summer recipes is a very classical combination – fresh sweet melon and prosciutto. The sweet-salty combo is perfect for a light summer appetizer when melon at its best. Prosciutto wrapped melon is a simple appetizer that goes well with both formal or casual menus.
Simply buy some prosciutto de parma at the deli counter (ask for it sliced paper-thin), and wrap it around pieces of melon that have been seeded and cut from the rind. Serve with a nice glass of white wine and after a few bites (and sips) you’ll forget all about the heat.
Tell me about the different kids of wine please hostess.. and which is tobe used when..?
Prosciutto wrapped melon is great with sparkling Prosecco. A ripe Pinot Grigio would also be a good match.
