If you are planning on serving a cooked ham this holiday season, consider the reheating process. It is already cooked, but to serve it nice and hot, you must reheat it for some time in the oven, especially if it is a biggie.
The most important thing is not to let it dry out. So the best thing is to slowly reheat it at 325 degrees F. Also, to further ensure it stays moist, add a little water, apple cider or ginger ale to the bottom of the roasting dish so it has some liquid to absorb. You will want to reheat it for 15-17 minutes per pound. After about an hour, cover in tinfoil and turn up the heat to 400 to finish it off. Then, once it is done, take it out and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Here are some glaze/gravy options:

Rachael, I am getting worried about my physical health - weight gain and also Multiple Sclerosis. I am now weighing in at 280. I have physical weakness with exercise, so consequently don’t do any. I tire easily and so, consequently again, I sit and watch TV, and eat. And eat. I love to cook; I watch cooking shows, subscribe to cooking magazines and definitely eat what I cook. Portion control is not in the program. I take diet pills, eat two portions of a meal, feel stuffed to the gills, and two hours later, eat again. I am really getting scared. I get so hungry. I know I eat out of boredom. I can’t take off and walk anywhere - I get weak in the process, plus I have balance problems don’t walk well at all. Is there anything you can suggest?

How can I safely clean a wooden spoon? Some recipes call for even raw ground turkey to be stirred with a spoon. Is hot water and soap enough? This question is a serious one!

I have a similar question. If you buy a frozen ham & cook it, can you then freeze the ham leftovers? My boyfriend says: “Once you thaw out meat & cook it, you cannot freeze it again”. Is this true?

Hi Rachel I love your show. I have two questions I got a Dutch Oven for Christmas it weights 15 lbs can I use it on a ceramic stove top? Where can I get the pot holder I see you take out hot things from the oven?
Thank You
