Ham Fried Rice Is Better Than Justice
Leftover ham is not a punishment. It’s a second chance. Dice it up and throw it in fried rice. Or eggs. Or mac and cheese.
Ham freezes beautifully. Wrap it tight. It’ll last for months. You can pull it out for emergency sandwiches.
Pro tip: The ham bone plus beans makes a soup so good, you’ll forget it’s Tuesday.
The Myth of the “Overcooked Ham”
You can overcook ham. It gets tough. It gets dry. But here’s the secret: you have to try to ruin it.
Ham is forgiving. Even a slightly dry ham can be saved with a good sauce. Or by drowning it in gravy.
Don’t stress. Ham loves you. Love it back.
