How people cook with it

- Heated for a quick meal
To enjoy this honey ham, you can serve it cold directly from the package. For a warm option, gently heat slices or cubes in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through. You can also add it to baked dishes like casseroles or quiches during the last 30 minutes of cooking. Ensure it is heated thoroughly before consumption if not eating cold.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other hams, this product's 'water added' designation means it has a higher moisture content, which can make it juicier. The honey flavoring provides a distinct sweetness that sets it apart from unflavored or other seasoned varieties. Its pre-cooked nature also makes it more convenient than raw ham.
Who it is for
Anyone looking for a convenient and flavorful meat option for everyday meals.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused portion of the honey ham tightly wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best to consume the remaining ham within 3 to 5 days to maintain its freshness and quality. Proper refrigeration is key to its safety.
