Title: Ham Loaf
Categories: Pork, Breads, Dairy
Yield: 4 Servings
MMMMM----------------------------LOAF---------------------------------
1 c Saltines; coarse crushed
1 c Milk
2 lg Eggs; lightly beaten
1/8 ts Pepper
1/2 c Onion; diced
1 1/2 lb Ground ham
1 lb Ground pork
MMMMM-----------------------BASTING SAUCE----------------------------
1/2 c Brown sugar; packed
1 ts Ground mustard
2 1/2 tb Vinegar
1/4 c Water
Set the oven @ 350 F/175 C.
Start the meat mixture by whisking up the eggs in a large bowl, and
then whisk in the milk. Stir in the bread crumbs and the ground
pepper until the crumbs are moistened. Then, fold in the ground ham
and ground pork; combine using a large wooden spoon or your hands.
Press the ham mixture into a 9x5" loaf pan. Shape the loaf so that
it's slightly domed in the center and with space down the sides.
That way, when you add the glaze it won't pool in the middle.
Rather, it will coat the whole loaf. Place the pan in the hot oven,
and bake the loaf for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk together the brown sugar, apple cider vinegar,
ground mustard, and water.
Once the loaf has baked for 30 minutes, pull it from the oven, and
spoon the glaze over the top. Put the ham loaf back in the oven,
and bake for an additional 40 minutes, basting occasionally with
glaze.
It's best if you let the finished ham loaf rest for at least
10 minutes. Then, slip the loaf from the pan onto a serving
platter, spooning the glaze from the pan over the top. Slice the
loaf into thick pieces, and serve.
