Michael Carlson's prosciutto consommé with melon balls is a clever riff on the classic prosciutto-and-melon combination. What makes it astonishing is the crystal-clear flavor of the delicate prosciutto broth—such a great alternative to the usual chicken or beef. More Healthy Soups

Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Make Ahead
The consommé can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
Suggested Pairing
This soup is so delicate that a white wine makes a better match than a red. Good Pinot Grigio, from northern Italy, is often marked by melony fruit, an ideal complement to the melon balls here.
