Carving a Ham

In carving a boiled or baked ham begin nearly midway from the small end and carve in thin slices across the ham, following in succession to the larger part. Cut across from A to B, as shown in the illustration. For those who prefer the hock, carve at D. When a fair amount of meat has been carved, cut the remainder, in the direction of C, D, in thin slices.
