This salad hovers satisfyingly between sweet and savory. Local melons shine in late summer, with produce stands piled high with fresh watermelons and cantaloupe. Serving watermelon with a shake of salt is an old trick for accenting its flavor. Here, the salty tang of feta revisits that technique, which works equally well to highlight cantaloupe’s sweetness.

<br />Tips:
<br />
<br />Allow the honey to release from the measuring spoon more easily by first pouring a little of the olive oil on the spoon.
<br />
<br />To cut the basil into ribbons, stack similarly sized leaves and roll them up cigar-style on the longest side. Use a sharp knife to cut the basil into thin strips.
