Time 2h30m

Yield 12 - 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 recipe for white-bread dough (see note)
1 smoked boneless ham, weighing about 7 pounds
1 egg, well beaten
2 tablespoons or less whole milk

Steps:

  • Make bread dough in the usual manner. Let rise once and punch down.
  • Roll out the bread dough to make a large oval approximately 3/4-inch thick. Set the ham in the middle of the dough and bring up ends and sides to cover the ham completely. Seal the edges by painting them with a little of the beaten egg thinned with the milk. Place the ham on a cookie sheet, cover lightly with a damp kitchen towel, and set aside in a warm, draft- free place for the dough to rise for approximately 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the dough-wrapped ham in the oven, and immediately reduce temperature to 250 degrees. Bake for 1 hour until bread crust is crisp and well browned.
  • Remove from oven, and let stand for approximately 15 minutes. To serve, remove the top layer of bread. Then slice the ham thinly, cutting right down through the bottom layer of bread, which will be impregnated with the ham juices. Serve with slices or broken chunks of bread from the top layer as well as the bottom layer.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The ham is always moist and tender, and the bread dough is the perfect complement. I highly recommend this recipe for any special occasion.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I had trouble getting the bread dough to rise properly. But the ham was still delicious.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it twice now, and it's been perfect both times. The ham is always moist and flavorful, and the bread dough is light and fluffy. I highly recommend this recipe.

This recipe was incredibly easy to follow, and the ham turned out perfectly! I used a 10-pound ham, and it fit perfectly in my Dutch oven. The bread dough was also very easy to make, and it rose beautifully in the oven. The ham and bread were both co
