Hollywood Ham

"Not sure why this is called Hollywood Ham, but it is a very good ham! It is especially good reheated, the sauce keeps it moist. I have used 1 1/2 cups chopped pineapple instead of the apple with great results as well. Can reduce the apple cider to 2 1/2 cups and add 1/2 cup of of Madeira or Port wine for a more complex flavor. This is also economical, the extra ham you do not use in this recipe can be used for other recipes or freeze for later use. Adapted from Bon Appétit magazine, March 1995. Hope you enjoy!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Hello all, being from California, I can honestly say I am a foodie. You can walk by construction workers here and hear them saying things like, So I used some fresh garlic and olive oil, then threw the rest into the pan to sautee. LOL I love all kinds of food, and trying to eat healthier as I get older, but still indulge in the occasional deep-fried food or sweet. <br />I LOVE this site! I have 3 or 4 other food sites such as Epicurious and Food Network, but I always come back here! The ease and all of the features just can't be beat. <br />Thanks Zaar and I look forward to participating more.</p>
