Bob F Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Mother came round for Christmas Dinner and brought a huge hock of ham (cooked). There's absolutely tons of meet still left on it. Is there any way of preserving it??? There's no way we will get through it in the next few days, and not too sure how long we can keep it in the frig???? cheers BF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnasher Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 liquidise it with a couple of pigs livers, freeze it and pop in in with the bream groundbait for the beginning of spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Removed Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Reply as dictated by my local domestic management : a) Cut the cooked meat off the bone and cube it. Bag up in quantities suitable for later recooking in risotto, pies, etc. and put into freezer. c) Boil up bone and remaining meat to make base for ham and pea/ham and veg soup. I would add : d) Put soup into thermos flask and enjoy whilst sitting safely by shore/river this weekend. Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam F Posted December 30, 2006 Report Share Posted December 30, 2006 Bob, Slice of a few decent slices and then roughly chop into chunks - a good few handuls are needed. Mix this with some chopped sweated leeks and/or an onion and mix the whole lot with a batch of mashed potato - finally, add a wisked egg to bind. Make into patties and you can add breadcrumbs if you wish... The best ham hashes ever!! Finally - we are in the same predicament.... Soups, curries, pasta, ploughmans.... Still going 5 days later!!

djredrupp Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 lol the smoke thingy isnt explosiv in itself,, but the chemicals,, as with all can giv u a nasty surprise!! it just makes a thick smoke, similar looking to that comming off a flare however it isnt harmful, and is pretty much odourless! it isnt the smoke which will come from a fire,, just different!!" loooool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 I would like to know how to make the smoke bom, should be fun at a friend's kitchen ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djredrupp Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 lol i just wonder how this has arisen on a fishing forum!! according to my 3000 page 'cookbook'. the exact recepie is: Here is the recipe for one helluva smoke bomb! 4 parts sugar 6 parts potassium nitrate (Salt Peter) Heat this mixture over a LOW flame until it melts, stirring well. Pour it into a future container and, before it solidifies, imbed a few matches into the mixture to use as fuses. One pound of this stuff will fill up a whole block with thick, white smoke!

Fugazi Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Salt Peter is the same as potassium nitrate (KNO3) Also used in the manufacture of cigarettes to prevent them going out and apparently if mixed with trichoethylene vapour, produces a gas that kills you instantly. So be careful of using cleaning fluids when smoking. Gordon H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
