      Title: Ham Pate
 Categories: Pork, Appetizers, Spreads
      Yield: 4 servings
 
     10 oz Virginia ham
      2 tb Mayonnaise
      2 ts Mustard
      1 ts Prepared horseradish
      2 ts Dry sherry
           Salt and pepper; to taste

           Walnuts; chopped
           Sliced artichoke hearts
 
  A similar dish is mentioned as being served in the White House in
  the last century. While it does not measure up to the standards one
  would expect for a foreign dignitary or visiting head of state,
  this pate is great as a canape or spread for grilled sandwiches.
  
  Grind the ham in a meat grinder or chop it very finely in a food
  processor using on off pulses. Mix the ham with the mayonnaise,
  mustard, horseradish, and sherry, and add salt and pepper to taste.
  Serve the pate on crackers or toast points and garnish with the
  walnuts and artichokes, if desired.
