Why recepie famous for?

This recipe puts a spin on prosciutto and melon by swapping in smoked salmon for the salty dry-cured ham.

Ingredients

1 2-pound honeydew melon
Olive oil (for drizzling)
Flaky sea salt
8 ounces cold-smoked fish , thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
Coarsely chopped dill (for serving)

Instructions

Slice off the top and bottom of the melon to create flat surfaces, then stand upright. Slice rind off melon in pieces; discard. Cut flesh in half through stem end; scoop out seeds and membrane from each half and set aside. Slice melon into ¾"-thick wedges; arrange on a platter.

Place reserved seeds and membrane in a fine-mesh sieve set over a small bowl and push out juice with a spoon; discard seeds and membrane. Drizzle melon juice over wedges, then drizzle with oil; season with salt. Drape smoked salmon on top. Drizzle with more oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; top with dill.
