HAM SERVED with fruit makes an interesting varia- tion for the traditional ham Easter's Spring Ham Garnished With Fruit Easter comes at a time of 'year when our senses are re- awakening {to the stir of spring in the land around us. This is also true of our tastes, which shave become slightly dulled and 'jaded over the long winter months. Easter, then, is a time when 'our taste is searching for tradi- tional Easter foods, dressed in light, bright clothing. There is no greater meal to satisfy this search than the traditional Easter ham garnish- ed with tangy fruits, A multi- 'tude of fresh fruits are avail- able at this time of year, in- eluding Isle of Pines pineapple, Jaffa, California and Florida oranges, large South African Barlinka grapes, as well as --" plums, pears and ap- ples. Complementing ham with fruit, not only served with it at the table but also in the form of applying an orange, apple or pineapple glaze itself, is an interesting way of highlighting the advent of Eas- ter and the coming of Spring. Purchase about 4% to % pound of uncooked bone-in ham per serving, suggest home econom- ists at Macdonald Institute, Guelph. Or if you prefer un- cooked boned ham, buy one- third pound per serving, Be sure te buy plenty; remember those second helpings, Place ham, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow pan. Insert meat thermometer in thickest Part, being careful not to let the tip touch a bone. Bake at 325 degrees F. until done, Ham is cooked sufficiently when ther- mometer registers 165 degrees F.
