STEINER
Ham is a favorite
Easter and it can be
so many ways one doesn’t - seem
to tire of it,
Some cooks bake the (ham for
several 'hours. We like to boil it
first letting it simmer for about
two hours after boiling it for' 10-
15 minutes. After removing the
skin, we cover 'the fat surface
with brown sugar, dot it -with
Whole clovers and bake until
browned and tender. Pineapple
rings held on with toothpicks
give a nice flayor,
We usually make croquettes to
finish up the- ham and- this i-s
how we make them.
Ham Croquettes
2 cups ground ham
1 to 2 cups thick -white sauce
•salt and pepper.
Moisten ground ham with the
white sauce. (Chill in refrigerator.
Divide into small portions and
shape into croquettes. Roll in fine
cracker crumbs, dip in 'beaten
egg then roll again in crumbs.
Fyy in golden 'brown in quite
deep fat turning often?* * * *
For a dessert that carries out
the theme of (Easter, and is quick
ly prepared, top -slices of jelly roll
with whipped cream. Lay a peach
half on top of the cream, cut side
