This appetizer originally came from a Colonial Williamsburg cookbook. It is now part of our Thanksgiving afternoon, leading up to dinner.

Provided by Donna Matthews

Categories     Ham

Time 1h

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 medium honeydew melon
1 lb ham, thinly sliced (Virginia or other, see note in directions)

Steps:

  • Cut melons in half.
  • Scoop out seeds and discard.
  • Scoop out balls with a melon ball scooper, approximately 1" in diameter.
  • Slice ham into strips about 1" by 4".
  • NOTE: Virginia ham is much saltier than our common ham. Since it is not available in my normal store, I use the packaged ham luncheon meat that is preformed into a rectangle (Danola brand), cutting it lengthwise.
  • Wrap each melon ball with a strip of ham and secure with a toothpick.
  • Chill and serve.

6 ounces virginia ham, thinly sliced
fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Dust the bottom and sides with flour, tapping out the excess.
  • FOR CORNBREAD: In a bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • Using a pastry blender or 2 forks, cut in the shortening until crumbly.
  • Add the corn kernels, buttermilk and eggs and stir with a whisk until smooth.
  • Transfer to the prepared pan.
  • Bake until the top is a golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven, let cool briefly, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Using a round cutter 3 1/2 inches in diameter, cut out 4 rounds.
  • Slice each round in half horizontally.
  • Set aside.
  • Leave the oven set at 350 degrees F.
  • FOR HOLLANDAISE SAUCE: In a stainless-steel bowl, combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, shallot, vinegar and salt.

  • Remove from the heat and whisk in the water and cayenne.
  • Then, while whisking continuously, slowly drizzle in the clarified butter until all of it has been used and a thick emulsion has formed.
  • Cover and keep warm.
  • FOR EGGS: Pour water into a large frying pan to a depth of 3 inches and bring to a boil.
  • Adjust the heat so the water is just below the boiling point.
  • Add the salt and vinegar.
  • One at a time, crack the eggs into a small ramekin or tea cup and gently lower into the water.
  • Work as quickly as possible so that all the eggs will cook in about the same amount of time.
  • Cook until the whites are firm but the yolks are still soft, 3-4 minutes.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to a paper towel-lined platter to drain.
  • Trim away any straggly strands of egg.

Ham and Fresh Peach Chutney on Corn Bread image

Categories     Bread     Bake     Cheddar     Raisin     Peach     Ham     Cornmeal     Summer     Chill     Gourmet

Yield Makes 24 hors d'oeuvres

Number Of Ingredients 22

For Corn Bread:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup grated Sharp Cheddar
1 large egg
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
24 slices cured ham such as Westphalian or prosciutto, or cooked country ham such as Smithfield
about 1/2 cup fresh peach chutney
FRESH PEACH CHUTNEY
1 firm-ripe peach
1/4 cup golden raisins, chopped fine
1 fresh serrano or jalapeño chili, seeded and chopped fine (wear rubber gloves)
1 tablespoon finely chopped, peeled fresh gingerroot
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped shallot
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • To Make Corn Bread:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. and generously butter a jelly-roll pan. 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1 inch.
  • In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and Cheddar.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg, butter, sour cream and milk. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture until just combined and spread evenly in prepared pan. (It is important to spread batter evenly or corn bread will be too thin and crisp in places.) Bake corn bread in the middle of oven 15 to 20 minutes, or until sides pull away from pan and top is golden. While corn bread is hot, with a sharp knife, loosen corn bread edges and cut into twelve 2 1/2-inch squares, preferably with a square cutter. With a metal spatula carefully transfer corn bread to a cutting board to cool and trim.
  • Halve each square diagonally to form 24 triangles. Corn bread triangles may be made 2 days ahead and kept in a sealed plastic bag, chilled. Corn bread will soften slightly. If crisper corn bread is desired, reheat in a 350°F. oven until crisp before proceeding with recipe.
  • To Assemble Hors d'Oeuvres:
  • Top each corn bread triangle with a folded ham slice and 1 teaspoon chutney.
  • Halve and pit peach and cut into 1/8-inch dice (about 1 1/4 cups).
  • In a bowl, combine peach, raisins, chili, gingerroot, shallot and cumin. Chill chutney, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
  • About 1 hour before serving, stir in remaining ingredients and salt and pepper to taste. Serve chutney at room temperature. Makes about 1 1/2 cups.
  • Can be made in 45 minutes or less but requires additional unattended time.
