Soak in cold water over night, then put to boil in cold water, and let it boil slowly until tender. Then take off the skin, which must come off easily, prepare a dressing of 1 beaten egg, 2 spoonsful brown sugar and rolled bread crumbs or cracker dust, all beaten together and spread over the ham. After the ham is put in the pan to bake, pour 1 pt. of sherry over it and baste it until the wine is absorbed and the top well browned in the oven.
