I love country ham. Yes, I’m trying to lower my salt intake but country ham is one of the finer things in life.
We’ve gotten a little carried away with it in modern times. Back when, country ham was soaked to reduce the saltiness before cooking. Now, we just fry it up and eat it. It’s very good, I think, but it is very salty. I actually love fried fatback, ever had that? Not for people with high blood pressure, lol.
where can one buy country ham?
I went to a Waffle House in Virginia that did not have them, but when I go through the Waffle House drive-thru in Raleigh, NC, they have country ham biscuits. Mmmm!
