10 Best Sauces for Gammon

Gammon is a succulent, flavorful meat that you deserve to enjoy.
That's why it's so important to pair your gammon with the right sauce.
Eating gammon with the wrong sauce is like watching your favorite movie with the sound off—you know you should be enjoying yourself, but something feels off.
So what should you look for in a sauce?
1. It has to match the gammon in the richness department. If your gammon is lean and light, pick a light and fresh sauce; if your gammon is fatty and rich, go for something equally rich and decadent.
2. It has to complement the gammon's flavor profile. If you're serving ham, think about what kind of flavor complements pork—apples, apricots, peaches, curry spices, pineapples, and other tropical fruits are all good options.
3. It should have an interesting texture. Gammon is typically served as a cutlet or slice of meat that covers a lot of real estate on your plate; choose a sauce that does something different from your meat: For example, if it's rich and creamy like butter, invite your guests' taste buds to enjoy something light and refreshing like mint!
