NOTES & TIPS

(1) Ham. About 8 ounces weight. You can use leftover cooked ham or deli-style sliced ham, and dice it. Another option is using store-bought pre-diced ham, which is a great time-saver; it can be found in U.S. grocery stores in the refrigerated cases with other meats like bacon.
(2) Eggs. About 3 hard boiled eggs. To save time, buy peeled hard boiled eggs from the grocery store, typically found in the refrigerated cases where the regular eggs are located. It’s much faster than boiling and peeling your own, but if you’re up for doing that, I recommend using a pressure cooker for fast, easy-to-peel eggs (see Instant Pot Hard-Boiled Eggs).
(3) Celery. About 2 stalks. After rinsing clean, pat dry with paper towels to avoid adding moisture to the salad.
(4) Scallions. About 5 scallions. Also known as green onions. Pat dry with paper towels.
(5) Serving. Serve chilled as a standalone salad, as a sandwich using bread/croissants/bagels, or as a dip with crackers.
(6) Spicy & Creamy Options. This ham salad is mildly spicy as-is; to make it spicier, increase the amount of cayenne in the dressing and/or use spicy pickle relish. For a creamier taste, increase the proportion of dressing or mix in one chopped ripe avocado.
