 Topic: Christmas Ham
Posted: 15 December 2006 at 4:19pm |
It's probably been asked before, but can I eat christmas ham if it's been nuked in the microwave?
I tell ya, I've only known i'm pregnant for two days and I've become a food obsessed nutcase!!!

 I know that Mum is serving it cold, so I guess it's probably a no for reheating it then. Oh well, I'll just have the hot chicken and pretend it's turkey!

I put in request to MIL for baked ham or none....will see whether she took notice - we dont get on great so bet she serves up cold ham!!! LMAO!!!
Ive asked (begged) my mum for a rolled turkey - you can get small ones for two people and they are so tender and divine and no bones! Try one of those maybe...

Yep you can nuke it. Anything for good ham, I say! Make sure it's hot but don't overcook it otherwise it's a bit tough.

I think if you know how cooked it and how it was stored etc, etc you should be fine. I personally wouldn't reheat  only for taste reasons.
I ate ham  when I was pregnant with Ethan and I think that as long as you are careful it should be ok.

The only reason to worry about foods like cold ham, chicken, fish etc etc is listeria. The listeria bug can develop on foods at any time when their temp is under 40 degrees and can develop in the fridge - that's why its recommended to reheat food until piping hot to kill it off. I like nice cold ham but will be reheating mine just in case - after my food poisoning I'd rather be safe than sorry.
