Knife Skills and Red-Pepper Ham Roll-Ups
Easter is almost here and lots of people will be serving ham. That made me think of Brendan McDermott, who has a 'knife skills' free mini-class on Craftsy.com. When I signed up for this class, I had no clue how helpful and informative it would be! Note the picture of the ham. I sliced that with my knife by hand!
Will, my youngest son, brought a ham home at Christmas. It was not sliced. Christmas Eve we always have an appetizer buffet. I had just taken the class of Brendan's and thought I would try my hand at slicing the ham. It needed to be relatively thin for
Will was making fun of me for taking this class. I learned how to cut meat, vegetables and fruits easily, letting the knife do the work. I am still amazed. As he was mocking me, I lifted the platter of ham and said, "Look what I did."
He had a surprised look on his face and said, "You did that?"
I assured him that I had and then he said, " That's pretty good, little Momma."
The mocking ended. Well, on that subject it ended.
If you are not familiar with Craftsy, you should check out their site, with classes on a wide range of subjects, and a lot of them are FREE! I am not affiliated with them in any way and do not get paid for saying any of this, but I love that site!
There's a picture of the red-pepper ham roll-ups below. They are really delicious, even if you have the deli slice your ham!
