Open the package and separate the desired number of ham slices. For a warm application, you can lightly pan-fry the slices until they are just warmed through or slightly crisped. They can also be incorporated into casseroles or baked dishes, though they are already cooked. Ensure any unused portions are properly stored to maintain freshness.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike some other deli hams, this product is uncured, meaning it does not contain added nitrates or nitrites. The addition of honey provides a distinct sweet undertone that sets it apart from more savory or smoky ham varieties.
How to keep the rest
After opening, refrigerate any remaining ham slices. It is best to keep them in their original packaging or transfer them to an airtight container. Consume within a few days of opening to ensure optimal quality and freshness. Proper storage helps prevent the ham from drying out.
