Steps:
- Place the joint in a large pan over the hob, or burner, and add 7 quarts of dry ginger ale. Bring the pan to the boil then lower the heat slightly so that it keeps bubbling steadily for 4 1/2 hours.
- Towards the end of the 4 1/2 hours, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and begin the glaze.
- In a bowl, add 1 cup of chunky ginger preserves. Stir in 2 tablespoons of hot English mustard. Add 1/2 a cup of soft, dark brown sugar and sprinkle in 1/2 a teaspoon of ground cloves.
- After 4 1/2 hours, gently lift the ham out of the pan and place on a foil-lined baking tray. Carefully cut away the skin, leaving a thin layer of fat. There is no need to score the surface, simply slap on the glaze and place the tray with the ham into the oven for 20 minutes.

Steps:
- Put the gammon in a large pan and cover with 2 litres of ginger ale. Top up with water to cover the joint, if you need to. Add the whole allspice berries and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low, and simmer gently, covered, for 2½ hrs. Top up with water, if you need to, while it's simmering.
- Drain the ham and leave until it's cool enough to handle while you make the glaze. Put the remaining ginger ale in a pan with the sugar, grated ginger and crushed allspice. Simmer, uncovered, for 20-25 mins until syrupy.
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Remove the skin from the ham, leaving a layer of fat, then score the fat in a criss-cross pattern. Transfer the ham to a foil-lined roasting tin, and brush over half the glaze. Roast for 15 mins, then glaze with the remaining syrup. Increase the temperature to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and roast for a further 15-20 mins until you get a sticky golden crust. Leave to cool for 15 mins before carving. Drizzle over more glaze from the tin to serve, if you like. Can be made ahead and chilled for up to four days.

"BOWL FULL OF CHERRY" HAM GLAZE
My family doesn't like turkey, so I was trying to come up with a new way to glaze ham other than the old brown sugar or pineapple glaze. Pieced together a few recipes, did some experimenting, and came out with this. Very tasty!

CHERRY ALMOND HAM GLAZE
I came across this recipe looking for an alternative to traditional sauces for holiday meats. Mostly, I serve it with holiday ham, and it goes over well-probably because it is such a change of taste. But the glaze should be fine with almost any meat...and its cheesy color would add a festive touch to the table! Our life's busy. In addition to being a farm records analyst, my husband's a minister. I work out of our home-our girls are 4 and 1-as a hairstylist and Edd's secretary, and teach a morning each week at a Christian preschool.

GINGER CHILE GLAZED HAM WITH FLAMBE FINISH

Steps:
- Temper the ham by bringing it out of the fridge 90 minutes before cooking. (This will allow it to heat more evenly and not dry out.)
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Place the ham in a shallow roasting pan fitted with a rack. Using a paring knife, score the fatty side of the ham by gently slicing lines 1/2-inch apart, crisscrossing on an angle to create a diamond pattern. This will allow the glaze to soak into the ham. Add the chicken stock to the bottom of the pan, then cover the pan in foil. Cook for 40 minutes, basting every 10 to 15 minutes.
- To make the glaze, warm the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger and chile flakes and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the brown sugar, honey, lime juice and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer, then cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Set aside the glaze in a bowl, leaving about 1/4 cup behind in the pan for finishing.
- Remove the ham from the oven and raise the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Remove the foil from the ham and discard the drippings from the pan. Brush the ham liberally with half of the glaze. Return to the oven and cook, uncovered, for 15 minutes, then brush again. Bake again until dark and caramelized, another 15 minutes. Remove the ham to a rimmed platter.
- Heat the remaining 1/4 cup glaze to a simmer over medium-low heat. If using the bourbon, remove the glaze from heat and add the bourbon. Using a lighter, flambe the alcohol in the pan and very carefully pour over the ham. (The alcohol can be omitted and you can just put the warm glaze over the ham.)

Tips:
- To make the glaze, use fresh cherries or frozen cherries that have been thawed and pitted. You can also use maraschino cherries, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- If you don't have ginger paste, you can use 1 tablespoon of freshly grated ginger.
- To make the glaze thicker, simmer it for a few minutes longer or until it reaches the desired consistency.
- You can use this glaze on ham, pork, or chicken. It's also great on roasted vegetables.
- If you're using a whole ham, be sure to score the fat cap before baking. This will help the glaze penetrate the meat and create a crispy crust.
- Serve the ham or other meat with the glaze on top. You can also drizzle the glaze over the meat before serving.

This cherry lime ginger ham glaze is a delicious and easy way to add flavor to your next meal. It's perfect for special occasions or everyday dinners. Give it a try and see for yourself how delicious it is!
