1. Place the rice in a large saucepan, cover generously
with water and add 1 teaspoon
of salt. Bring to a boil, add the ham and reduce the
heat to cook at a simmer. When the
rice is tender, about 15 to 20 minutes, add the sugar
snap peas, then immediately drain
the rice, ham and peas and rinse them lightly in running
water.
2. Empty the mixture into a bowl and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon
vinegar. Add the green
onions and mix well. Spread as thin as possible across
the bottom of the bowl to cool and dry.
3. Just before serving, mix together the remaining tablespoon
of vinegar and the olive oil.
Add this dressing to the rice along with the provolone
and mix everything together well.
Taste and adjust the seasoning for salt. Serve at room
temperature.
