It is best when freshly made. The ham should be sliced and then minced and served up as soon as it is hot, before it turns to a dark color. Took the lasc lean trimmings of the boiled ham that would not make slices, 1lb, 18 cents, minced fine. Put in saucepan, butter, 1 cent, and large spoonful water, put in the ham and let get hot but not fry. Season with black pepper only. Made 12 thin slices of toast of one-half loaf bread, 21/2 cents. Spread a spoonful of minced ham evenly on the toast as called for. _____
