This is one of the first recipes Chef Vincent shared with us for “A Year of the Best” and it’s excellent with ham

      Hi Sydney, this recipe can be frozen for up to 2 weeks, however there will be some texture change. As an alternative, you can make this up to 4 days in advance and store in the refrigerator. To reheat, cover with foil and bake in a 350′ oven for about 15 minutes, until heated through. Remove foil in the last 5 minutes to crisp the top.
