THE STARS OF YOUR EASTER DINNER

Ham is the star at most Easter Dinners, my grandmother always prepare a Leg of Lamb for our Easter Dinner,I will the give recipes for both dinners. Here are some tips that will help you make the most of your Holiday Ham or Leg of Lamb.
I will start with the Ham, there are three basic varieties: city hams, country hams and fresh hams, my family only prepare the city ham because it the one you are most likely to encounter in the grocery store. These hams have been soaked in brine and then either smoked or boiled. City hams are moist and tender. Their flavor ranges from mild and salty to rich and smoky, depending on how they have been cooked.
Lamb is flavorful enough on its own that it doesn't need much seasoning, but conversely, lamb's flavor is robust enough that it pairs beautifully with any number of boldly flavored seasonings. Some additions that complement lamb well are rosemary, oregano, marjoram, thyme, lemon zest, cumin, coriander, mint, and garlic.
