If you think Thanksgiving turkey tastes good as a leftover, try this. The ham's wonderful served cold on a bun with hot or cold relish spooned on the top. The meat can be slices and cooked up in a soup as well or added to a green bean casserole. The only problem I've had is having leftovers to begin with! -Vicki Tasker, Oakland, Maryland Ingredients:
1 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 teaspoon ground allspice |
1 boneless fully cooked ham (3 to 4 pounds) |
apple relish: |
4 medium tart apples, peeled and chopped |
2 cups sugar |
1 cup chopped dried apricots |
1 cup golden raisins |
1/4 cup vinegar |
2 tablespoons grated orange peel |
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted |
Directions:
1. Combine cloves and allspice; rub over ham. Wrap tightly in foil and place in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 325° for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 140° and the ham is heated through. 2. In a large saucepan, combine the first six relish ingredients. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer for 25-30 minutes or until thickened. Stir in almonds. Slice ham; serve with the relish. Yield: 8-10 servings (4 cups relish). |
