SC - ham

[Sharon Gordon]

Many people also soak the ham in several changes of water, before they
even start cooking it.  Smithfields' are very salty.  Also this ham tastes
best in very thin slices--no thicker than thin sliced bacon.

If you have some left over for modern purposes try:
1) Triple decker turkey and smithfield ham sandwich with
   lettuce and tomato and mayo.
2) Using scrappy pieces and fat to make hamspread in the blendar
   or food processor.
3) Making hambone soup with vegetables.  Including lima beans
   and potatoes as some of your vegetables is especially good.
4) Ham biscuits

For more medieval purposes, it would be good where spicy ham
or prosciutto type meats are used.
