Prosciutto, Melon and Figs

It will be especially flavorful if the melon is well ripe and smells sweet at the stem end.

Peeling is easiest if you place the melon pieces cut-side down on a board.

If the figs are very soft, cut them with a smooth, sharp knife to avoid crushing them.

Take the prosciutto out of the fridge only shortly before serving so it stays tender and flavorful.
