Boiled Ham Recipe
Put a ham weighing 14 pounds in a large kettle and half cover with cold
water and cook slowly. When the water boils, add a quart of sour white
wine and cook about five hours, or until tender. Put the ham in a baking
pan and trim off the under side nicely, and take off the skin. Cover an
inch thick with currant jelly, put a cup of sherry in the pan and put
into a pretty hot oven. Let the fire go down; baste very often at first,
that the wine may penetrate the jelly, and bake a half hour or more.
