is i t d o n e y e t?
T he outside will look done before th e inside
is, so it’s best to use an instant-read
th erm o m eter to check fo r doneness.
Because all o f these loaves contain egg,
th e y should reach an internal tem perature
o f at least i6 o °F . If you do not have a
therm om eter, check that th e loaves are firm
to th e touch, juices run clear, and no pink
rem ains. (T h e Ham Loaf will rem ain slightly
pink because o f th e ground ham .)
