Preparation

Step 1

Process the ham in a food processor until finely chopped but not pasty, about 6 or 7 pulses. You may need to do this in batches.

Place the finely chopped ham in a large bowl and continue processing the remaining ham.

Add the mayonnaise, onions, relish, and mustard to the processed ham. Mix well and, if the mixture is too dry, add more mayonnaise.

Refrigerate until serving. The dried onions absorb some of the moisture from the mayonnaise and relish so you may need to add more mayonnaise before serving.

Cook's Note:
Do not use boiled or processed ham. I add some of the delicious crusty skin when using leftover baked ham. You can also ask in the deli department for baked ham ends. I only use Hellman's(R) mayonnaise, but you can substitute 1/2 regular and 1/2 light. I prefer dill pickle relish, but I have made it with sweet relish and it still received rave reviews.
