Hi Dave,
DD> 1/2 lb Diced ham
RH> I'd think ground ham would work better, unless it's a fine dice.
DD> I use (mostly) deli sliced ham no more than 1/8" thick. So, it's a
DD> fine dice. Here are a couple recipes that illustrate taht.
RH> OK, we get that from time to time but more often do a regular ham and
RH> run scraps thru a food proccessor. Best hams we ever got were from a
RH> Mennonite place in PA but his operation had a major fire some years ago
RH> that put him out of business.
DD> Living the bachelor life I'd be hard pressed to use up a whole (or
DD> even a half) ham. If I'm making something calling for ham I'll get a
DD> ham steak from Humphrey's or buy a smallish canned ham in the 1 pound
We have a freezer and will bake the ham, then repackage it into meal
size portions for it. Easy to pull one out the day ahead (or warm water
thaw it).
DD> size from Dutch Colony or DAK (a Danish company that's more common
DD> than I expected when I went looking).
DAK has been around for ages; I remember seeing it when I was a kid.
BTW, when we were in UT last week, our daughter put a Honeybaked ham in
the oven one night--it was good. Almost fork tender. Don't know what
they run, costwise, but it is a good ham--and pre sliced so no hassles
with that issue.
