DEVILED HAM

Steps:

• Pulse 8 ounces coarsely chopped country ham or good deli ham in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl and mix in 4 ounces room-temperature cream cheese, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, 2 teaspoons whole grain mustard, and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional). Fold in 1 chopped scallion and 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley; season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
