Weigh ham and boil twenty minutes to every pound; when done put it in cold water for twenty minutes. Take out, skin, put into a baking pan and pour over it a tumbler of jelly and sherry wine; put into the oven for twenty minutes; baste well. Before serving the sauce pour off the grease. This is also very nice eaten cold, but the sauce must always be warm. Venison is very nice cooked in this manner.
Mrs. H. W. Seale.
One slice of ham one inch thick; soak one hour in a cupful of sweet milk. Cutoff the rind and put the ham in an earthen pudding dish which is just large enough to hold it without folding. Sprinkle over it an even tea-spoonful of granulated sugar, a dust of pepper and a teaspoonful of flour. Cover closely and bake two hours in a slow oven. Drain off some of the fat, add a fresh cupful of milk to which has been added one teaspoonful of flour: boil up and serve in the dish in which it was baked. Variation: After freshening, sugaring and dredging with flour, place on top of ham a large tomato skinned and sliced; dredge this with flour and pepper and bake.
