| 459 | I thought I had posted my ham glaze info here.. Here 'tis.. To bake and glaze your ham.. Our favourite recipe - given to me by a butcher here in Whakatane many years ago (my recipe book notes 1984), is: Simmer together till the sugar is dissolved: 2 cups brown sugar, 1 cup pineapple juice (use the juice from a can of pineapple rings, and make the juice up to 1 cup with water), 1/2 tsp dry mustard. I place two layers of tinfoil in the bottom of my roasting dish. Remove the skin of the ham, and score a diamond pattern about 1/4" deep into the surface of the ham. Place the ham on the tinfoil, then decorate the ham with the pineapple circles and with cherries inside the circles. Use toothpicks to hold them in place. Pour over the glaze, cover firmly with foil then the roasting dish lid if it will fit - otherwise just use the foil. Bake at 160°C for 20 minutes per kilo. Baste with the glaze about every 10 minutes. juliewn - 2007-12-03 00:11:00 |
| 460 | Once it's cooked, I place the ham on a cake rack over the roasting dish; completely cover the ham with foil so it cools slowly to ensure the ham stays tender. Once cold, refrigerate. This tastes wonderful and I don't use any other glaze.. Hope this is of help.. Enjoy... Julie juliewn - 2007-12-03 00:12:00 |

| 490 | What an awesome thread can anyone help with idea's for nibbles i have already thought of the norm eg:cheeseboards, platters etc, just wanted something different thats all. TIA. shan4 - 2007-12-22 17:06:00 |
| 491 | what about a delia smith one: roll out flakey pastry and then sprinkle thinly - chopped cooked bacon, and grated tasty cheese. roll each side into the middle and then into the middle again. slice in thin pieces and when cooked they open up slightly like little heart shapes. bake as for pastry 180 deg cel. an anti pasta board works well - mussels, pepparonii, stuffed capsicans, olives, pickled onions and gerkins, cheese board, crusteenies and spreads, pate and dips. have a great christmas!! timetable - 2007-12-22 20:15:00 |

| 499 | I hope you all had a lovely Christmas 2007.. For suggestions for using leftover ham: ham is really nice to cut into slices that are as thick or thin as you want, then grill, fry or bbq them as you would do bacon - the flavour isn't quite as strong as bacon - tastes very good though. Add ham chunks and lightly cooked veges (onion, asparagus, capsicum's, courgette's, etc) to a sweet and sour sauce and toss through, then serve over rice. Add to scrambled eggs, or omelette's, or quiche, or use in place of bacon in a bacon and egg pies - or muffin sized pielets! How about that for a new name.. pielet's are small pies! hehehe.. juliewn - 2007-12-28 00:09:00 |
| 500 | Toss bite sized chunks of ham and hot potato or kumara chunks through salad veges for a warm salad - serve tumbled into bowls with a tasty dressing for a well balanced and light summery meal.. Add ham to a frittata, with summer veges. Freeze some in slices to use in quiche, pies, soup, etc.. Add some chopped small cubes of ham to cheese scones for extra flavour. Make a pizza, including ham as part of the topping. Make Calzone bread - with sliced ham as part of the filling that is cooked inside the bread. Make ham, tomato and cheese toasted sandwiches, or filled panini.. and cook in a sandwich maker or electric grill. Include salad ingredients also if you want. juliewn - 2007-12-28 00:09:00 |
