Ingredients

  • 5 ounces Hermelín cheese (140 g) or Camembert, Brie, Saint-André
  • 3 ounces ham (85 g)
  • 2 Tablespoons mayonnaise plain
  • 2 Tablespoons milk
  • 2 eggs hard-boiled
  • ½ onion
  • a pinch salt
  • a pinch black pepper ground
  • green parsley to garnish

Instructions

  • Peel and finely chop the hard-boiled eggs. Same for the onion: peel and finely chop it.
  • Cut the ham and the Hermelín cheese into small cubes.
  • Put the chopped ingredients in a mixing bowl, add mayonnaise and milk. Lightly salt and pepper.
  • Stir thoroughly. Let rest in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. Stir again, add salt to your liking if necessary.

Notes

  1. Makes 4-6 yields.
  2. SERVING: Cut a baguette in a bias into slices, layer the spread on top of each. Garnish with a sprig of parsley. Arrange on a plate and serve as a snack.
  3. If you want the spread to have a more buttery taste, add about ⅓ stick (40 g) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature.
  4. Any leftover of this spread? Put it in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and store it in the refrigerator for up to three days.
