    Vermont Country Baked Ham


    Source of Recipe


    The Honorable Howard Dean, M.D. Governor of Vermont

    Recipe Introduction


    Vermont has been blessed with miraculous trees. One is the sugar Maple, which produces our wonderful Maple Syrup, and another is our apple trees, which produce an abundance of a variety of apples. In the Fall, some of the apples are pressed into cider. Combining the two flavors with Vermont ham produces a culinary experience you don't want to miss.
