    Old Amish Recipe For Homemade Ham Salad

    Published: Jan 14, 2015 · Updated: Jun 5, 2019 by Kevin Williams | 1 Comment

    By Kevin Williams

    This is an old, old Amish recipe for homemade ham salad from an Amish woman in Indiana. A lot of Amish recipes for ham salad, believe it or not, are "mock ham salad" recipes using ground-up hot dogs. This is an old recipe that actually uses ham.  Sounds like a simple version of this all-American picnic classic, so save this for the upcoming spring and summer picnic season!

    Reader Barbara tested out this recipe for us and here is what she had to say:

    I made this today and Mr really liked.  However, I only used 3 eggs and used celery flakes because I did not have fresh celery.  This was a very simple version of ham salad.  It is good on crackers as a snack and will be equally tasty on a sandwich!

    hammieAbove is a photo of the actual handwritten copy of the recipe.  I loved seeing old, handwritten recipes.

    Below are some photos of Barbara's version of the ham salad:
