Recipe(tried): Old Fashioned Ham Salad

Grind fine leftover ham and some sweet pickles (add other ingredients as previously suggested, to taste). Make a dressing as follows:

Mother's Boiled Dressing
This has a sweet-sour, more pungent taste than mayonnaise.

Mix in a saucepan and whisk until well mixed:
2 Tblsp. flour
3 Tblsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dry mustard

Then add:
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup water
2 eggs
dash of pepper

Whisk well and cook over boiling water ( double boiler) or over low heat, whisking constantly until hot and thickened. Cool and mix with the ground ham and pickles. Leftover amounts can be refrigerated and used as salad dressing. Keeps for 3-4 days in fridge.
