Method

1
This is a no-cook, assembly-only recipe — no cooking required.
2
Pulse the ham in a food processor until finely and evenly minced (or chop very finely by hand), being careful not to purée it to paste.
3
In a bowl, stir together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, relish, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce.
4
Fold in the minced ham and shallot until evenly combined.
5
Season with black pepper to taste; the mustard and hot sauce provide most of the salt and heat, so taste before adding more.
6
Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld before spreading on sandwiches or crackers.
7
Keeps refrigerated up to 4 days.
