So try to set aside fears that you wonât get it ârightâ and just craft a simple, personal message. Itâs definitely important to say something rather than nothing so the person knows theyâre not alone. Here are ten ideas that may help. Our hearts are broken.
1 Bake a preserved ham that has not been precooked at all for 20 minutes per pound (0.5 kg). 2  Bake a fresh bone-in ham for 20 to 25 minutes per pound or a fresh boneless ham for 30 to 35 minutes per pound (0.5 kg).
The best way to do this is to place the ham on a rack in a roasting pan. Add water to the bottom of the pan and cover tightly with aluminum foil (cover the pan with the ham). Cook approximately 12 to 15 minutes per pound for a whole or boneless ham and approximately 18 to 20 minutes per pound for a half ham.oth cook-before-eating cured and fresh hams should be cooked to 160 degrees F. Reheat fully-cooked ham to 140 degrees F. Use a Cooking or Meat Thermometer for the perfect ham for your Christmas dinner.
