This salad is a perfect storm of sweet, savory, tangy, cool, and crunchy!! You can make this ahead, but don't add the feta until just before serving.
(makes 10 servings)
2 T. freshly squeezed* lemon juice
1/4 cup EVOO
1 t. honey
1/2 t. kosher* salt
1/8 t. freshly* ground pepper
1/4 t. poppy seeds (optional)
1 med. honey dew melon (3&1/2-4 lbs.), seeded and cut into bite-size cubes
1 English* or 2-3 Persian* cucumbers, unpeeled and cubed
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, briefly rinsed
4-5 oz. dry salami*, cut into thin strips
3 T. chopped fresh dill
4 oz. feta cheese, crumbled
Put lemon juice in a large bowl. Whisk in olive oil in a slow, steady stream until incorporated. Whisk in honey, S&P, and poppy seeds. Add the rest of the ingredients. Toss to combine. Top with feta. Serve with warm herbed breadsticks*.
