Skinke i Vin

== Description ==
Ham baked in wine. Fhere are hams and hams. This recipe is intended not for the canned or cellophane-wrapped hams available at your supermarket but for the so-called "country" or Smithfield ham which requires precooking preparation. A gourmet feast will repay you for the loving care these hams call for.

# Remove ham from roaster.
# Cut away and discard tough outer skin.
# Brown mushrooms in butter.
# Cut a slash in the top of the ham sufficiently large to hold the mushroom mixture, water, salt and pepper.
# Skewer the opening to keep the filling in place.
