Ham Sauce (Modern)

Ham sauce (in Italian, Salsa di Prosciutto) is a relatively quick and simple sauce used to coat pasta or served over rice. It should not be confused for a glaze for baked ham—rather, it is a sauce on its own that incorporates ham.

Ingredients

  • 3–4 oz ham or prosciutto, cut into strips
  • 1 tsp tomato purée
  • 1 oz butter
  • 2 cups vegetable or meat stock

Instructions

  1. 1
    Melt butter in small saucepan, and gently sauté the strips of meat.
  2. 2
    Stir in tomato purée.
  3. 3
    Add stock and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  4. 4
    Serve over rice or toss with pasta.
