Instructions
  1. Remove the rind and seeds from the cantaloupe. Cut into 3 or 4 wedges, and then, using a sharp knife or vegetable peeler, cut each wedge into long, thin slices. Lay the slices out on a large plate or platter or divide evenly between small salad plates.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the shallots, lemon juice and zest, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the sliced cantaloupe. Using a vegetable peeler, shave Parmesan cheese into thin curls or slices. Top the dressed cantaloupe with the shaved Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
