Can't beat a nice bit of proper carved ham in some crusty bread with a good English mustard generously spread.

The local deli do ham on the bone and it is truly sublime. I have never properly checked but it is about 14 euros a kilo or thereabouts. This packet ham you see is full of salt and water and is complete rubbish in comparison, pay the extra few bucks and eat proper food.

I do mine in the sow pot. with rough chopped red onion, carrot, fennel, parsnips and a cup of apple juice or cider. Absolutely divine. good cold next day too, (only the ham that is).

Sainsburys deli counter does decent ham right off the joint for you too. It is pennies more than te packet stuff.

the wafer thin value stuff is just pants, and not even good value for money when you look at it properly.

nothing wrong with wafer-thin, yorky, as long as it from parma or similar

I think you are missing the cheese angle to all this ham topic.
Cut a small cube of goats cheese, wrap around with parma ham and skewer with a**tail stick or two. Fry for a few minutes each side to crisp the ham and melt the cheese. :)

I like Iberico ham on its own with nothing whereas york ham is lovelyin a roll with buttr and mustard or pickle, or even as partof a croque monsieur. When i've had iberico or parma in this country from supermarket not so impressed tbh. When i was in barcelona i hd loads of iberico ham, we used to buy it by the plate full, really nice - butthey used to eat it with this tomatoey bread but the bread was just soggy - as if they'd dipped it in tomato juice. would rather eat the ham neat.
