Sainsbury's Smoked Large Wiltshire Cured Gammon, Taste the Difference

Cooking instructions: Oven

Oven cook from chilled. Before cooking: Preheat the oven. Remove all packaging. Rest the joint for 10 minutes. Pat the rind dry with kitchen paper towel. Wrap the joint in foil, leaving the top rind of the joint exposed and place in a foil lined roasting tin. Place on the middle shelf of the oven. During cooking: Cook for the time calculated. After 1 hour, turn the oven down to 200°C/Fan 180C/Gas 6 and cook for the remaining time. After cooking: Remove from the oven and allow to rest in a warm place for 10 minutes before carving. Carefully remove strings with scissors. Carefully remove crackling with a knife and cut into small pieces. Carve the gammon joint into thin slices using a sharp, flat edged knife. Enjoy hot or cold. Check food is piping hot throughout and the juices run clear. All cooking appliances vary. This is a guide only. This gammon can be soaked for a milder flavour. Submerse in a bowl of cold water overnight in the fridge (from 1 hour to overnight). Discard water and pat dry with kitchen paper towel before cooking.
