Baked a 6-pound ham yesterday. Had biscuits to go with and a nice corn & red pepper salad.

Besides the usual sandwiches, frittatas, mac & cheese, potato gratin...what the hell can I do with all this ham?????????

:huh:

I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

My mother used to make really good ham salad with red pepper relish. Sorry I can't remember more about it than that. :sad:

I forgot about that! For some reason, when I was a kid, my mother always had a ham in the fridge. I am talking the whole honkin' ham! Needless to say, she had all kinds of ways to use it up.

One ham salad that I hadn't thought about in years had diced ham, green peas, small diced cheddar, onion, red pepper or pimento with a little mayo... served cold.

The other ham salad was a variation on however she was making tuna salad at the time. I liked that one, too.

If you're absolutly sick of it, then divide it into approx. 2 cup portions, wrap well and stick it in the freezer. Ham thaws quickly, and you'll be ready for a weekend breakfast, or company who drops by without calling.

one of my favourites - simple and unbeatable - fried egg, on ham on bread (plus seasoning/mustard/butter). (I first came across it in Holland where it is called "uitsmijter".) I never tire of this variation on bacon and eggs. could easily eat a whole ham.
