National Glazed Spiral Ham Day is observed annually on 15 April nationwide. The spiral glazed gammon is a novel take on the well-known cured meat. The glazed spiral ham, which is typically served at holiday meals, is an enchanting indulgence that deserves recognition.
HISTORY OF NATIONAL GLAZED SPIRAL HAM DAY
For centuries, carvers had difficulty manoeuvring around the gammon bone. Harry J. Hoenselaar rescued the day in 1952. He devised a machine with top and bottom barbs for skewering machines. Hoenselaar outfitted the machine with a spring-loaded slicing blade that cuts gently through meat and stops when it encounters resistance. As the meat rotates, the spikes produce a spiral pattern on its surface.
Additionally, Hoenselaar founded the national chain HoneyBaked Ham. Historically, these establishments were the sole providers of spiral-cut gammon. Fortunately, you can now purchase this enchanting delicacy anywhere.
Glazed spiral hams are available in half or whole sizes, boneless or with bones. They are either pre-glazed or packaged with the glaze. You could also create your own glaze. The ham’s butt end is slimmer than its shank end. The spiral glazed gammon offers something for everyone (meat-eaters, of course).
This entrée is frequently served at large holiday celebrations. With its uniqueness and intriguing creation technology, it is an occasional indulgence that is warmly welcomed. The spiral glazed gammon is relished during celebrations and makes the best sandwiches the following day. One could argue that these are superior to the day-old gammon. The spiral glazed gammon is a gorgeous invention that merits an entire day of celebration. National Glazed Spiral Ham Day is observed annually on 15 April to honour this fan favourite.
