Do any have feelings about cooking a dry cured ham? That would include a
Smithfield country ham, Gwaltney ham, Piggy brand country ham, and country hams in general.. Generally you can: 1. Simmer in water to an internal temp. of 160-165F, then remove skin and glaze the top, or bake it unglazed until the surface fat is removed as much as possable. 2. Soak in water for 8-24 hours, then bake skin side up in a moist environment at 300-325F until internal temp. is 160-165F. Remove skin and bake as above until surface fat is removed. Glaze or don't glaze. I've tried both of these techniques with marginal success. Simmered, the ham comes out like dry pulled pork, and baked the ham comes out somewhat like partially pulled pork, though not so dry, but too salty. Any experiences to share? Thanks in advance, Kent -- ,constantly struggling with my level of ignorance |
