Steps:
- Add Wine vinegar to bottom of bowl.
- Peel garlic, and using a garlic press, add garlic to vinegar and allow to sit at least 10 minutes. (Alternatively, if you don't have a garlic press, mince garlic finely and then sprinkle with salt and rub the side of your knife across it to crush garlic to a fine paste, then add to vinegar as above.) Stir pepper, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes into vinegar. Add chopped onion, stir to mix together.
- Wash and thoroughly dry the escarole and separate the leaves, tearing them into 1-2 inch pieces. Add to vinegar and garlic, chop the cucumber into one inch pieces and season with black pepper.
- If using the optional anchovies, break them into sections and add to the olive oil. Otherwise, pour olive oil over salad, sprinkle with salt and mix gently but thoroughly. Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Escarole salad can be easily varied to suit the ingredients that you have available, or what's seasonal at the market. But remember, it's best kept rather simple, with not too many ingredients.
- This can be topped with Parmesan croutons or served with [bruschetta]. When in season, optionally add fresh ripe tomato slices and use chopped fresh basil and oregano. Another nice addition is roasted red peppers. Or add 2" X 1/2" slices of salami, mortadella or a sharp Italian cheese such as Asiago or Provolone. Or add a can of cannelloni beans (drained), or a can of Italian Tonno (tuna) packed in olive oil.
- Note: When using anchovies, adjust salt, as anchovies can be very salty depending on how they're packed.

- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Lay the slices of prosciutto in a single layer on the pan and roast for 8 to 10 minutes, until browned. Set aside to cool, then break into small pieces.
- Meanwhile, place half the cantaloupe and honeydew on a large, flat platter, and place the other half on a large cutting board. Place a dinner plate or other heavy, flat dish on top of the melon on the board, and press firmly on the plate to lightly smash the pieces, shifting and tilting the plate as necessary. Transfer the melon, and any juices that have collected on the board, to the platter.
- Scatter the torn mozzarella over the melon, toss gently, then drizzle lightly with vinegar and olive oil and sprinkle generously with sea salt and black pepper.
- Tear or roughly chop the mint, then scatter the mint and pieces of prosciutto over the salad. Serve the salad at room temperature. Copyright 2020, Lidey Heuck, All Rights Reserved
