Creamedham Recipes

CREAMED HAM ON TOAST

Steps:

• In a skillet, saute the ham, green pepper and celery in butter for 4-5 minutes. Sprinkle with flour; stir until smooth and bubbly. Add the milk, pepper and celery seed; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add egg and cheese; stir until cheese melts. Serve over toast.

CREAMED HAM (OR TURKEY)

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium sized pot over medium heat.
• Slowly add flour, whisking constantly to make a smooth mixture. Cook the mixture for about a minute, whisking constantly.
• Gradually add milk, whisking during every addition. Mixture will initially seize up but as you add more milk it will start to loosen.
• Slowly the mixture will become more liquid. Continue to whisk it very well in order to avoid lumps. Add milk a few tablespoons at a time, whisking as you add it, until it's all incorporated.
• Initially the mixture will be thin. Stir with a wooden spoon, scraping the bottom of the pot, until it thickens. Depending on the temperature of the burner this could take 5-15 minutes.
• The sauce will be done not long after it starts to slightly boil and thicken. Stir in chopped ham (or turkey).
• Season with salt, starting with 1/2 teaspoon and adding more to taste, depending on the saltiness of your ham or turkey. I often use about 1 teaspoon in total.
• Serve over mashed potatoes, with vegetables on the side.Enjoy! :)

Remove the garlic and put the spinach into a colander and let it drain well. Press out as much liquid as you can from the leaves and chop them coarsely.
