Categories     Ham

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 loaf (20 oz) country white bread, crusts removed and thinly sliced
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
14 oz sliced Black Forest ham
3 1/2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese (14 oz)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh sage leaves
4 eggs
3 cups milk
2 teaspoons ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Generously grease bottom and sides of 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with shortening or cooking spray. Place layer of bread slices in bottom of baking dish. Brush with 2 tablespoons of the mustard. Top with half of the ham slices, then sprinkle with 1 cup of the shredded cheese and 1 tablespoon of the sage. Repeat layers, reserving last 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese. In large bowl, beat eggs with whisk, then add milk and ground pepper; beat to combine. Carefully and evenly pour egg mixture over layers in baking dish, making sure bread absorbs most of the liquid. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and 1 tablespoon fresh sage. Cover dish with sheet of greased foil. Let stand 30 minutes before baking. Bake about 35 minutes or until dish is baked through and bubbly. Remove foil, and bake 10 minutes longer or until cheese on top is lightly golden. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. The strata is always fluffy and cheesy, and the ham and bacon add a nice salty flavor. I've made this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it's always a hit.

This recipe was easy to follow and the strata turned out great! I used sourdough bread and it was delicious. The strata was a little dry for my taste, so next time I'll add a little more milk or cream.

This dish was a little too eggy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less eggs and more milk. Overall, it was a good recipe and I would make it again.
