Bar S Deli Shaved Smoked Ham
What it is
This is thinly sliced ham that has been cured and smoked. The smoking process imparts a distinct flavor and aroma to the meat. It is typically made from pork. The ham is pre-cooked and ready to eat, making it a convenient option for quick meals and snacks. The thin slicing allows it to be easily incorporated into various dishes without needing further preparation.
How people cook with it
This versatile ham is excellent for sandwiches and salads. It can also be warmed for a quick meal.
- Sandwich filler
- Salad topping
- Breakfast side
- Appetizer component
Open the package and separate the slices. Use the ham directly from the package for sandwiches, wraps, or to top salads. For a warm dish, gently heat the slices in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until warmed through. You can also add it to casseroles or pasta dishes towards the end of cooking. It pairs well with cheese and bread for a simple meal.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to thicker cut deli ham, this shaved version offers a more delicate texture and integrates more seamlessly into dishes like omelets or as a topping. Its uniform thinness ensures even heating and distribution of flavor.
How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the package tightly or transfer the remaining ham to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator. It is best to consume the opened package within a few days to maintain freshness and quality.
