53, see if you agree with the red eye method I posted above with the country ham receipts.
A well-cured, dry-smoked Spanish ham in thin slices goes well with melon. Good for a light lunch. Westfalian is very good, but not in the same league as the old salt-cured country hams; it is available through some of the German butchers here. There are all of the Italian hams as well.
If the country ham is going slightly jelly-like in the center- the best, especially hot with the red eye and hushpuppies or biscuits.
