Have a lovely Tesco finest ham to cook tomorrow for dinner, and leftovers for Boxing Day.
We eat roast ham quite often during the year, but usually just a gammon/bacon joint rather than the expensive one we have for Xmas. Normally, it can be quite salty so I'd soak it overnight, boil it (so I have ham stock for soup) then finish off in the oven with the glaze.
Do you think my more expensive ham will need the same treatment? Cooking instructions don't say to soak it but then gammon joints don't either. I would hate to ruin it. Any thoughts?
