Directions:•Soak the smoked ham for one to two days in cold water. The day before or during the morning brush it and rinse it with warm water and then possibly cook it for 30 minutes to remove the salt.
•Throw the cooking water away. Put the ham in warm water in a large pot with the bouquet garni and a little salt. Boil gently allowing 20 to 30 minutes cooking time per kilo.
•One hour before cooking is finished, add the cabbage which has been previously blanched and possibly a few carrots. Cook the sausage separately for 40 to 50 minutes over a low heat. To serve, thinly slice the ham and sausage, arrange on a warm dish with the vegetable garnish.
One can also serve steamed beans sprinkled with parsley and flakes of butter which also form part of the Bénichon menu |

Notes:
The "Bénichon" is a century-old, traditional Fribourg celebration.
At the beginning, it was a religious celebration whereby thanks were given to the gods for what had been harvested during the year. Over the years the ceremony's religious side disappeared and the gastronomic and festive side remained. For six hours straight or more, you eat and drink and, if you manage to get on your feet again, dance! And the whole thing according to local tradition.
