Glazing a ham is an art form with the power to become a tradition that invokes nostalgia across generations.\u00a0 Choosing the right Christmas ham involves considering factors such as size, type and how you’d like to serve it.\u00a0 Here are my top tips:<\/p>\r\n

Type of Ham<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

Ham On The Bone vs. Boneless<\/em><\/p>\r\n

Nothing says Christmas quite like a Ham On The Bone.\u00a0 \u00a0It reigns supreme in tradition and has an opulence reminiscent of royal feasts and medieval banquets.<\/p>\r\n

Anything cooked with the bone has an enhanced depth of flavour and helps keep the ham moist when glazing.<\/p>\r\n

Boneless ham has a more delicate texture and should ideally be served cold and sliced finely.<\/p>\r\n

Ham Size<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

In The Realm of Holiday Feasts, Size Does Matter!<\/em><\/p>\r\n

Opting for a larger ham is the secret to a season-long celebration of indulgence and joy.\u00a0 From center stage, ham transitions effortlessly to delicious leftover meals once the main event is over.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Planning Ahead<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

Order your ham in advance, especially if you’re after a specific type or size.\u00a0 Our hams are smoked daily and vacuum packed which means you can purchase your ham weeks in advance without affecting freshness.\u00a0 Just follow these tips:<\/p>\r\n

When purchasing your ham, make sure that the bag is tightly sealed and that there is no air or liquid.<\/p>\r\n

Store your ham in the lowest and coldest part of your refrigerator.<\/p>\r\n

Ensure there are no sharp edges that can puncture the bag and don’t store items on top of your ham.\u00a0 The pressure can cause the bag to break.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n

Storage<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n

Everyone Needs a Good Ham Bag<\/em><\/p>\r\n
