This is an American recipe for green tomato use. As an American I have had to English up the measurements so if they seem too much please feel free to 'fix' them. My number one rule about food is "Play with it, experiment with the spices and amounts. Find what works for you and go with it."

- 2 large thick cut slices of ham, diced (do not soak)
