Carving TipsStep 1. Place ham skin side up.
Then run a small, sharp knife
under the rind around the
bottom (opposite end to hock)
and each side of the ham to
about halfway up towards the
hock. Peel the rind back.
Step 2. Run the tip of the knife around
the bone, on the underside of
the ham. Begin to slice on a
slight angle down to the bone.
Step 3. Run your knife lengthways
along the bone to remove
slices. Continue to slice
towards the hock.
Step 4. Continue slicing down to the
bone, working your way around
the ham. When you’ve reached
about a third to the way up, you
can remove the bone by making
a few short cuts at the joint.
