Recipes For Cooking Ham

Ham Cooked In A Casserole Recipe

Scrub and soak the ham. Put in a large earthen casserole (these can be bought for a dollar) with a kitchen bouquet, a cup of soup vegetables, a quart of water, and a pint of cider; cover closely, pasting a strip of cotton cloth around the joint where the dish and cover meet; let cook in the oven, or on top of the range, without boiling, about six hours. Finish as a boiled or baked ham. Strain the liquid and use in making a sauce to serve with the ham when hot.

Broiled Ham Recipe

Cut the ham very thin. If mild cured, broil over bright coals three or four minutes; if very salt, let stand in boiling water five or ten minutes, then dry and broil. For fried ham proceed in the same way, using the hot frying-pan in place of the broiler.
