Taking salt out of a ham?
from bluefairyguy: when i was young, my grandmother always used to cook ham... to remove salt in cured ham, let it soak in water for 24 hours... prior to cooking. also, she sometimes slow-boil it in low wood fire to speed up the removal of too much salt in the ham, thus cutting the cooking time in half.
Does smoked ham need to be soaked before cooking?
I would suspect not. The only reason I can think of that you would need to salt a ham before cooking and eating it is if it is salt cured. (You soak it in plain water so that the process of osmosis will draw the excess salt from the salt cure process out of the ham and into the water.) If a ham is smoke cured, I can't see why it would have been salt cured as well. You could always take a quick small taste of the meat to make sure the salt content is not excessive, but I cannot imagine that it would be.
