Categories     main-dish

Time 3h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 7 to 8-pound smoked fresh ham
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup apple jelly
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Place the ham in a roasting pan fat-side up. Score the fat with a crisscross pattern. Cook the ham for about 1 hour to allow the scored fat to open up.
  • In the meantime, in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir together the brown sugar, apple jelly, mustard, vinegar, ginger and garlic along with 2 tablespoons water. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 2 minutes until it has a smooth syrupy consistency.
  • Remove the ham from the oven. Generously brush the ham with half of the glaze. Place back in the oven and bake an additional 1 hour and 30 minutes, basting with the remaining glaze every 20 minutes. If the ham starts to get too brown, cover with foil. Remove from the oven, cover and allow the ham to rest for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

THE BEST HAM GLAZE



The Best Ham Glaze image

A perfectly glazed ham is often the centerpiece of many holiday celebrations, including Easter and Christmas. Guests swoon over the juicy, savory slices on their plate. The most beautiful ham will have a tangy, sticky-sweet and shiny glaze. After tinkering with many ingredients, we landed on a knock-your-socks-off combination that includes brown sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon and cloves for sweet, warm and slightly smoky notes. Dijon and a splash of apple cider vinegar add tang and zip while soy sauce gives it a great depth of flavor. Rounding out the glaze with brightness are the zest and juice of an orange. We hoped to only brush the ham once during baking, but test after test proved that glazing two more times during the last 30 minutes in the oven brings out the best flavors and creates the most magical sheen.

Time 4h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 8- to 10-pound fully-cooked bone-in ham
3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
3/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
Zest and juice of 1 navel orange
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes and trim off any skin. If your ham is not a spiral-cut ham, use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat.
  • Place the ham, flat side down, on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup water into the pan. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound-reduce the time to 10 minutes per pound for a spiral-cut ham).
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the brown sugar, maple syrup, soy sauce, orange zest and juice, Dijon, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, onion powder and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the glaze has thickened and reduced by half (you should have 1 cup glaze), 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the ham is ready.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Brush half of the glaze over the ham. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add 1 cup water. Return the ham to the oven and roast for 30 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze every 10 minutes (two more times) before returning to the oven.
  • Let the ham cool for 15 minutes before thinly slicing.

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

  • Meanwhile, for glaze, in a medium saucepan stir together sugar, vinegar, and mint sprigs. Bring to boiling. Reduce heat. Boil gently, uncovered, about 30 minutes or until reduced to 1 cup. Remove from heat. Remove and discard mint. Brush ham with some of the glaze.
  • Baked ham for 20 to 30 minutes more or until thermometer registers 135°F, brushing three more times with additional glaze. Sprinkle with pepper. Let stand 15 minutes before carving. (The meats temperature will rise 5 degrees during standing to the safe temperature of 140°F.) Serve meat on a platter layered with green tops of uncooked leeks and green onions, if desired. Sprinkle with pepper, if desired. Bring any remaining glaze to boiling and serve with ham. Makes 16 to 20 servings.
