Description
Ham Salad is one of those classic Southernrecipes that really pushes the boundaries of what the word ‘salad' can mean.It's easy to prepare and holds well for a few days in the fridge, making it agreat choice for hosting a crowd, especially during the holidays when you'vegot other cooking projects going on. This recipe keeps things pretty traditional,using Duke's Mayonnaise for creaminess, and adding minced shallot, pickles, andDijon mustard to increase the Twang Factor even more. I like to garnish with abig flurry of green herbs because, let's face it, while ham salad has a greatpersonality, appearances are lacking. To serve, I fan out the crackers(classics like Saltines and Ritz only, this isn't the time to get fancy!) andset out a bowl of dill pickles and pickled banana peppers for folks to pop ontop.
