Melon, Serrano, and Arugula Salad
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon molasses
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 cups loosely packed trimmed arugula
1 ripe cantaloupe, peeled and cut into thin slices
3 ounces Serrano ham, thinly sliced
1/4 cup (1 ounce) shaved Manchego cheese
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, oil, molasses, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper, stirring well with a whisk.
Arrange the arugula in an even layer on a serving platter. Top with the cantaloupe slices and ham, and sprinkle evenly with the cheese. Pour over some of the dressing and serve immediately. Makes 6 servings.
Cook's Tip: Serrano ham is an air-cured ham from Spain. You can find it in the deli section of many supermarkets, or you can substitute Italian Prosciutto ham.
