Ham-and-Spinach Dip image

This recipe calls for Black Forest ham, but feel free to get creative and substitute serrano, prosciutto, or your favorite. Also, use frozen spinachin lieu of fresh, because it's equally yummy and a huge time-saver.

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 small onion, finely chopped (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
