From: MISS MIMSY #2 @1209010*1 Ä-Ä- Regarding: HAM GRAVY Ä-Ä- þ I am looking for a recipe for ham gravy. Also, how do you cook the ham to þ begin with in order to have anything to make gravy with? þ Ä-Ä-ÄÍ-Ä-Ä- And Miss Mimsy called back to you with... Ä-Ä-ÄÍ-Ä-Ä- From my limited experience I will toss in my idea. If you are talking Ham as in shank in bone ham that is popular this time of year, what I have done is glaze it like you would any other ham with you desired glaze and cover and bake it in an oven. Believe me you will have enough juices from the ham to make a lot of gravy. Most cookbooks will give you a cooking time chart per pound of ham, so you know how long to cook it. As for gravy the simpleist way is to first seperate the fat from the juices then to the broth add Wondra which is a fine flour mixture that doesnt lump when mixed, but makes a nice gravy.Just ad it and whisk or stir away over heat. I don't know if it is in all areas. If not, you can mix flour and water together and make a smooth paste and whisk it in...but have to be a bit more aware of how you put it in or it may lump. The more involved wawy of making gravy is taking some of the fat from the juice and browning it by adding a Tbsp or more of flour and then adding the ham broth and milk and seasonings, to your liking...I'd stay away from salt as there is PLENTY in the ham juice already :). There are many more experienced and accomplished cooks on this sub that may feel I have missed the mark on this post, and I would be thr first to admit that point :). I have only done a ham like this maybe 3 times...I plan on trying one again this EAster time, as they are usually a good deal in the grocery stores. So, if I have gone astray in my advice...set me straight you good cooks out there, so I can do it better this year . But, basically I I beleive I am on the right track on how to do it. There just maybe a better way I am not aware of or I may have missed a step....just covering all the bases here :). Happy Cooking..... Miss Mimsy
