For the UF4007 in particular a 10-12 ohm 2W wirewound resistor in series feeding each diode, and .01uF 3kV caps shunting across each end of the resistor pair kills the reverse recovery spike and gives a nice smooth sine wave output, actually cleaner than a HEXFRED.
The resistor by themselves, without the caps, work pretty well, too.
