Uncooked York Ham - On the Bone

Enlarge image

Sometimes a ham just isn't a ham unless you have cooked it yourself!

This is the ham that would be found in many a farmhouse in days gone by hanging from the ceiling. Although sadly that is no longer a common practice you can re-live the old traditions by pretending you cured it yourself! Dry cured and matured over a period of at least ten weeks, it develops a wonderful flavour and a firm yet succulent texture. The curing process means that the York is somewhat drier and saltier than the Wiltshire Ham.

The ham comes with an instruction booklet on how to cook your ham. Please note that due to the saltiness of the ham it will require a minimum of 24 hours soaking prior to cooking. So if you're ordering with a particular meal or event in mind make sure you request delivery at least 2-3 days before.

The optional cooking bag is ideal to use if you haven't got a cooking vessel big enough to pop the ham in, and it saves on the washing up! Instructions for using the bag come in the booklet.
