Fried Ham With Poached Eggs
Fry the ham as usual. Poach the eggs by putting into a frying pan with boiling water, over a gentle fire; put in the eggs, which should be broken into a dish separately to avoid bad ones, cover the pan 4 to 5 minutes. Take up with a skimmer, on to the ham, or a separate plate, as you choose, sprinkling over a little pepper and salt, and a bit of butter. Serve hot.
Broiled Ham. —If the ham is very salty freshen it a little in hot water, as salt pork is freshened, except to remove from the stove as soon as it boils, and let it soak about 30 minutes. Drain nicely, and broil as beefsteak, which see. Turning 2 or 3 times; season with pepper and a little butter upon it. To be served at once, while hot.
