How to Buy and Bake Ham Economically at Home
Dear Mrs. R L: For a family of six or more, buy a whole ham. for smaller groups a half. The butcher can cut into butt center shank parts. Shank half costs less per pound and offers easier carving. Modern hams require no soaking or parboiling and roast in two thirds the time. Bake fat side up at 350F, room temperature ham cooks best, score fat and glaze with orange, honey, spice, ginger ale, or pineapple. Also included are shank simmer instructions and a ham and spaghetti dish and a cubed ham rarebit.
