Christmas ham

This is a great wild boar recipe for a climate-smart and incredibly tasty Christmas ham for the Christmas table. For the breading, you can choose to add the spice mixture or not. The spice mixture gives an extra dimension to the meat, so we can highly recommend it. Leave it alone if you prefer a more traditional taste of Christmas ham. Regardless of what you choose, the Christmas ham of wild boar instead of domestic pig is a clearly tastier, climate-smarter and definitely much healthier option
