What kind of ham did I have years ago that needed to be cooked?
Posted: 04/04/2012 09:14:05 AM

Here's the problem. Years ago my mother-in-law baked the most glorious ham but did not remember what type of ham she purchased. It tasted like a ham but needed to finish cooking. I ordered a "fresh ham" but it didn't taste like a ham, it tasted like pork. The meat came apart along the muscle fibers,and it was a very dark brown--not gray or gelatinous. So, what kind of ham did she buy???

It may have been a dry cured ham but I am not sure. Go to this address http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--741/types-of-ham.asp#cookuncook and you will find information on different types of ham. This information may be helpful in determining what type of ham your mom used to fix. Good luck.

Question on recipes: Spaghetti Bake (2934)

Do you have suggestions for freezing this? Would it be ok to split the recipe and freeze half? Should the frozen half be thawed before cooking? Should it be frozen after cooking? If so, how do you suggest reheating.
