Hawaiian ham salad is a fresh and delicious dish that has gained popularity in various regions of Latin America. Its origin dates back to the influence of Hawaiian cuisine, especially due to the use of pineapple, a characteristic ingredient from that region. In several Latin American countries, this salad may have different names, such as "tropical ham salad" or simply "Hawaiian salad." This dish combines the sweetness of pineapple with the salty texture of smoked ham, creating an ideal contrast for warm climates and as a side dish for family gatherings or rest days.
Furthermore, its simple and quick preparation makes it very popular in homes and at events. The mix of fresh ingredients and mayonnaise with a citrus touch provides a unique flavor that is appreciated in many Latin American cultures, adapting according to regional tastes and ingredient availability.
