BREAKFAST CROISSANTS STUFFED WITH HAM AND GRUYERE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Unroll crescent dough and separate individual rolls at perforations. Place 1 piece of ham and 1 tablespoon of Gruyere cheese in the center of each triangle. Fold over the 2 longer sides of the triangle, overlapping them to seal ham and cheese.
• Arrange crescents 1 inch apart on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Let cool completely on a cooling rack.
• Wrap crescents individually with wax paper and place into a large resealable bag. Place in the freezer.

HAM AND GRUYERE QUICHE

Steps:

• Set a baking sheet on the middle oven rack; preheat to 425 degrees F. Scatter the ham and cheese in the pie crust. Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, chives, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl; pour into the crust. Transfer to the hot baking sheet and bake until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar and mustard in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until smooth. Add the greens and mushrooms; toss well to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Cut the quiche into wedges and serve with the salad.

SMOKED HAM STUFFED PEROGIES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add filling ingredients and combine well. Set aside.
• In a large bowl add both flours, baking powder and salt and mix well. In a separate bowl add the remaining dough ingredients and whisk until combined. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredient using a wooden spoon to form a ball. Cut in half. (You can freeze dough for another time, if desired.)
• Flour a work surface and roll dough about 1/8-inch thick. Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut out 12 rounds from the dough.
• Place a dollop of filling in the center of each dough round. Fold dough over filling to form a half moon. Press edges together with your thumb. Seal the edges using the flat tines of a fork.
• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a simmer. Add perogies and cook for about 2 minutes. Drain perogies.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet over high heat, melt half of the butter and add the onion.
• Cook onions for 5 to 6 minutes until slightly caramelized. Add perogies and the remaining butter. Allow to saute for a few minutes, then add the scallions.
• Remove to a platter and serve with sour cream.

RALEY'S MARKET STUFFED HAM

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from ham.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Wash cabbage, kale and onions with cold water. Chop or shred cabbage, kale, and onions and place in a large bowl. Add red and black pepper. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
• Prepare ham for stuffing by making 1 or 2-inch slits all over the ham, about 1- to 2-inches deep. Using your gloved hand, press stuffing into slits until full. Fill large cavity where bone was located with stuffing also.
• When finished stuffing, tie ham with string. Wrap ham with cheesecloth and tie securely. Cover ham with aluminum foil and bake for 5 hours.
• When ham is finished, drain and let ham cool down overnight in the refrigerator before carving. Serve cold.

MINI GRILLED GRUYERE AND HAM SAMMIES WITH CORNICHONS

Steps:

• In a food processor, finely chop 2 cups cornichons until they are a coarse paste.
• Spread one side of each piece of bread with Dijon. Top each piece of bread with a slice of Gruyere. Place the ham on half of the pieces of the bread and cheese. Spread the cornichon paste on the other half of the pieces of bread and cheese.
• Preheat a griddle or saute pan.
• Close the sandwiches and press to secure. Butter the outsides of all the pieces of bread.
• Place the sandwiches on the griddle or pan and cook until the bread is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Turnover and repeat this process.
• When the sammies are golden brown and crisp on each side, remove them from the griddle and neatly cut the crusts off the bread. Cut each crustless sandwich into 8 neat mini sammies.
• Top each mini sammie with a cornichon half and secure it with a toothpick.

PAN FRIED PIEROGIES WITH HAM

POTATOES STUFFED WITH HAM AND GRUYERE

• Pierce the potatoes with fork and arrange in a circle in microwave oven.
• Cover with damp paper towels.
• Microwave potatoes at high 12 minutes or until done.
• Rearrange after 6 minutes.
• Let stand 2 minutes.
• Split open, lengthwise in half, scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4 inch shell.
• Reserve shells, set aside pulp.
• Heat butter in a small fry pan over medium high heat.
• Add garlic; sauté 30 seconds.
• Add milk; bring to a simmer.
• Pour milk mixture over potato pulp.

PIEROGIES

Steps:

• Place the sour cream in a large bowl, and mix in flour to make a dough. Roll the dough out on a floured surface about 1/16 inch thick, and cut rounds about 3 1/2 inches across using a cookie cutter or a glass. Re-roll the unused dough to make more rounds, up to 4 times -- after that, it gets hard to work with.
• Place about 1 teaspoon of mashed potatoes in the center of each dough round, fold over into a half-moon shape, and press and seal the edges with a fork. Set the filled pierogies aside under a towel to prevent drying.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the onions until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the cooked onions and set aside, leaving butter in the skillet.
• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, and carefully drop a few filled pierogies at a time into the boiling water. After they float to the surface, allow them to gently boil for about 4 minutes.
• Re-heat the butter in the skillet over medium heat. Gently scoop the pierogies out of the water (they break easily) and place them in the skillet to brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Place the fried pierogies on a buttered baking sheet, sprinkle them with the cooked onions, and keep warm in the oven on low setting until served.
