BLANKETED HAM WITH SWEET POTATOES AND APPLES
Author: Top of the Rock Astronaut / Labels: HamCut off the fat close to the edge of a slice of ham one-half inch thick. Put fat through meat chopper, spread on top of ham, then sprinkle one-half cup of brown sugar and wine-glass of sherry over it. Peel and quarter four large sweet potatoes and four large apples. Put ham in oven in covered roasting pan. After it has cooked a quarter of an hour add apples and sweet potatoes. Now cook all of it three-quarters of an hour. This makes a delicious and savory dish, and is so substantial that little else is required for a meal.
Chop fine cold cooked ham. Toast and butter some slices of bread, spread the ham on the toast, put them in the oven for 3 or 4 minutes. Beat 4 eggs in a cup of milk, season with salt and pepper. Put 2 tablespoonfuls of butter in a saucepan, pour in the beaten eggs and stir over the fire until thick but do not let it boil. Pour the eggs over the ham and serve.
Ham Canapes
Author: Top of the Rock Astronaut / Labels: HamCut six slices of bread and toast to a golden brown. Put them on a platter. Cover each piece with a slice of lean cooked ham, spread a little mustard over it, then chopped parsley and fine bread crumbs, and a little Parmesan cheese. Place in a hot oven for ten minutes and serve.
Take equal quantities of cooked asparagus, cut into bits, and cold cooked ham cut into small cubes. For each cup of material make a sauce of 2 tablespoonfuls each of butter and flour, a cup of the liquid in which the asparagus was cooked, a teaspoonful of lemon juice with salt and nutmeg to taste. Add 2 beaten eggs, also the ham and asparagus. Turn into small buttered cups, cover the tops with buttered cracker crumbs and bake in the oven until a golden brown.
Mince cold cooked veal and ham in the proportion of 2/3 veal and 1/3 ham. A few mushrooms are a pleasing addition. To each cup of the mixture allow a tablespoonful of fine crumbs; season highly with salt, a dash of cayenne, a little lemon juice, and a teaspoonful of catsup. Wet up with stock, or butter and water, and heat in a vessel set in another of hot water, to a smoking boil. Take from the fire, stir in a beaten egg and a glass of sherry, and fill in shells of pastry that have been baked empty. The shells should be hot when the mince goes in. Set in the oven for 2 or 3 minutes, but the mixture must not cook.
Breaded Ham Saute
Author: Top of the Rock Astronaut / Labels: HamCut cold boiled ham into rather thick slices, cover with a mixture of pepper, olive oil, and mustard; dip in egg, then in cracker crumbs and set in a cold place. Fry slices of fat bacon or pork crisp, take them out and put the breaded ham into the hissing fat. Turn when the lower side is brown and cook the upper. Garnish with hard-boiled eggs cut in slices, serving a slice upon each portion of ham.
