Ingredients
- 1 pound chopped cooked ham (I recommend a good smoked ham!)
- ½ cup good quality mayonnaise
- ½ cup sweet pickle relish, drained from the jar with a slotted spoon
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 green onion, minced
- 2 tablespoon minced yellow onion
- 2 tablespoon minced red bell pepper
- 2 tablespoon minced celery
- 2 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoon minced fresh chives
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh dill (use more if you really like dill)
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne (if you don’t like heat, try just a pinch to start out with)
- kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Using a food processor, pulse the chopped ham until you have very small pieces. Take care to not over-process into a mushy texture. Transfer ham to a medium bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, folding to combine.
- Serve chilled. Serve as a sandwich spread or a topper for crackers or cucumber slices. Also good served on a plate of fresh greens.
