Molded Ham Loaf

2 tablespoons gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup boiling water or ham liquor
2 cups ground or finely chopped cooked ham
1/4 cup ground sweet pickle, or chopped pickle like chow-chow
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon prepared horse-radish, if available
2/3 cup cooked salad dressing, part mayonnaise if possible

Sprinkle gelatin on cold water; add hot liquid and stir until dissolved. Add rest of ingredients and season with salt if necessary. Place mixture in oiled loaf pan measuring about 5"x2 1/2'x9". Chill several hours or until firm. Slice and serve cold. Halves of hard-cooked eggs make an appetizing garnish. Double the recipe if your family numbers more than four.
