Hello,

I would like to know if condiments are often used when eating turkey,
ham etc during Christmas? If so, what are the usual favorites?

Are you kidding? I guess you're not from the western hemisphere. Heinz
ketchup is my favorite condiment to eat with just about anything. I am
not a fan of ham, but I do sometimes eat it, always with ketchup. Turkey
is one of my favorites, and it benefits from ketchup too. My dad's a big
mustard fan, so that's always on the table too. Very common with turkey
is cranberry sauce. You can buy cranberry sauce already made in cans or
jars, but a lot of people make it themselves. Some people prefer
something very sweet with their ham, such as a thick sweet sauce which
is often based on pineapple juice, but usually, the ham is cooked with
the sauce on it.

I know several people who do not use any condiments with turkey or ham,
but they are in the minority.

Sometimes, homemade gravy is the only condiment you need with turkey.

So are those who use catsup and mustard on turkey!

ERP!

(Yes, we know your proclivity, Stan, but one shouldn't give the impression
that it's common)

Gravy, of course, and most often, some type of cranberry sauce/relish.

Cranberry relish and gravy for the turkey for sure. Ham can be glazed with
any number of condiments such as apricot etc. When eating ham sandwiches
it is definitely mustard for me.

Naturally there's gravey (but I don't consider gravy a condiment).
With turkey I recommend a horseradish-mayo sauce... some like ketchup
but I think that's more to cover the flavor of turkey rather than
complement.

Nothing goes so well with ham (hot or cold) as mustard, and there are
many types but preferably not typical yellow ballpark style, a grainy
brown honey mustard is nice, the horseradish-mayo sauce goes well with
cold ham, there are also many fruit sauces, ie. pineapple-raisin ....
ketchup with ham (or with any cured/smoked meat) is an abomination,
means you are afflicted with taste in ass disease.

I must_have_cranberries. Don't care what kind... from canned jelly to
homemade chutney, is fine with me.... long as it's cranberry.

Step 1 - is this want you mean?

condiment
[KON-duh-ment]
A savory, piquant, spicy or salty accompaniment to food, such as a relish,
sauce, mixture of spices and so on. Ketchup and mustard are two of the most
popular condiments.

Step 2

For turkey I would think that cranberry based relishishes or jelly would
probably be the most popular. Although based upon the definition the strffing
may also be concidered a condiment. The number of recipes is endless.

Step 3

For a baked ham very little comes to mind although a raisin sauce is very common
in many parts of the country. I do like to spike mine with some mustard.

Step 4

There are also a gazillion home made relishes like a corn relish or a chow chow
that may also be served as a side
