Ingredients: The Quartet of Flavor

This recipe boasts simplicity with just four essential ingredients, making it a quick and delightful treat for yourself or unexpected guests.

Pickles:

Originating from the Dutch word ‘pekel,’ meaning brine, pickles play a vital role in this recipe. Opt for whole dill pickles from a jar, ensuring they are dried with a paper towel before assembly.

Deli Ham:

Whether thinly sliced from the local deli or prepackaged lunchmeat, the choice of ham is yours. Ensure the slices are dried before the cream cheese application.

Cream Cheese:

To achieve the best consistency, use room temperature cream cheese. A quick trick is to submerge the foil packet in hot water, bringing it to room temperature in 5-10 minutes.

Dry Ranch Seasoning:

Elevate the flavor with a touch of homemade dry ranch seasoning. If you don’t have a store-bought packet, consider crafting your own for a personalized touch.
