| Dec 26, 2018 at 18:03 | comment | added | elbrant | I'm so glad everything "came together" for you! The mashed sweet potatoes sound like an excellent alternative for the cookie sheet dilema. Smart! (a green check under my vote number would be a most appreciated thank you - it means I gave the best answer) Enjoy the rest of the holidays @bitterlily! and thank you! | |
| Dec 26, 2018 at 5:52 | comment | added | bitter lily | How do I commend you for your help, @elbrant? Thank you so much! We had a delicious meal of juicy glazed ham, roasted veggies (even if the half that didn't have a tin foil lining to the cookie sheet got heavily "carmelized"), and mashed sweet potato. All of the veggies and most of the sweet potato and half of the ham got devoured, so I consider this a resounding success! Thank you again, especially for checking in on a holiday. And sorry, "cts" is comments. | |

a) I'm checking in and out while cooking... brain fog: what does cts mean? b) follow the recommendation on instructions (for tenting).

| Dec 25, 2018 at 16:51 | comment | added | bitter lily | Second paragraph (how do you make one in cts?): As for tenting the ham, the recipe I have calls for tenting it during the 15 minutes while it "rests." You say not, presumably from experience. I can try the half-and-half. | |
| Dec 25, 2018 at 16:47 | comment | added | bitter lily | My question was whether I could use a cake pan or a Pyrex casserole dish, with sides, to substitute for a third cookie sheet if I need it. As to whether I'd have enough real estate, I can check that I suppose with a cold oven this morning. But I don't know why everyone calls for a side-less cookie sheet, so I'm nervous about substituting. | |
| Dec 25, 2018 at 15:50 | comment | added | elbrant | ...cookie sheets because you are worried about not having enough space? You will just have to see how much fits where and make a judgement call. If you are prepping the veggies and they won't fit on 1 cookie, start roasting the first cookie sheet when the oven hits 400 (25F difference to start won't be a huge issue). Tenting the ham can be done the entire time, but it would probably work best not to tent after you have glazed it. You want the glaze to harden, tenting it could affect the moisture and keep it "slushy". | |
| Dec 25, 2018 at 5:35 | comment | added | bitter lily | Wow, that's detailed; thank you so much! Uh, yes, though -- what do I do about the cookie sheets? And I couldn't help but notice that you have the ham sitting on the platter without tent for 15 minutes -- why not keep it in the tent until the veggies are ready? | |
