Cantaloupe With Sugar Snap Peas and Ricotta Salata

3.8

(1)

Tossed cantaloupe chunks thinly sliced snap peas and ricotta with a sprinkle Aleppostyle pepper on a plate

Salty and sweet, crunchy and juicy, this throw-it-together summer side has it all. It's also one of the only instances where you should seek out a slightly underripe cantaloupe: Firmer flesh means it will be easier to slice into ribbons.
