===Notes on gammon cooking times=== | |||
Usually a gammon joint is cooked by boiling, either in a large saucepan (about 1.5 hours to 2.5 hours depending upon weight), or a quicker method is to cook in a [[pressure cooker]] (1 hour). After this process, the gammon will be cooked and perfectly safe to eat, however, often the gammon is then finished by [[roasted]] with a glaze ([[honey]], [[marmalade]], [[branston pickle]], etc. This finishing process does make for an extended cooking time but it does give an exceptional finish. | |||
