Deviled Ham
Description
The Deviled Ham recipe uses cooked diced ham blended with white onion, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, and black pepper. These are pulsed in a food processor to achieve a finely chopped, unified mixture before mayonnaise is incorporated for creaminess. The finished spread can be garnished with thinly sliced green onions, adding a mild freshness. This simple process yields a savory and mildly spicy ham spread that balances saltiness and tang from mustard and hot sauce.
The texture is finely minced yet retains some body from the ham, making it suitable for spreading on crackers, bread, or sandwiches. The recipe allows control over the heat level by adjusting hot sauce and pepper to taste.
Serving ideas include using it as a snack spread or sandwich filling. It can add a flavorful alternative protein option for casual meals or gatherings.
Leftover deviled ham should be stored in a sealed container and refrigerated, where it keeps well for up to four days. This ensures freshness while preserving its flavors.
