As published

This recipe was extracted from Modern cookery, in all its branches (1884) by Eliza Acton, page 280. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

POTTED HAM. (An excellent Receipt.') To be eaten in perfection this should be made with a freshly cured ham, which, after having been soaked for twelve hours, should be wiped dry, nicely trimmed, closely wrapped in coarse paste, and baked very tender. When it comes from the oven, remove the crust and rind, and when the ham is perfectly cold, take for each pound of the lean, which should be weighed after every morsel of skin and fibre has been carefully removed, six ounces of cold roast veal

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
