TANGERINE-GLAZED EASTER HAM WITH BABY CARROTS

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h20m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (8 to 10-pound) smoked ham, bone-in, skin on
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch fresh sage leaves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut in chunks
2 tangerines, sliced thin, seeds removed
2 cups tangerine juice
2 cups light brown sugar, packed
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon whole cloves
2 cinnamon sticks
11/2 pounds carrots, peeled

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Put the ham in a large roasting pan, fat-side up. Using a sharp knife, score the ham with cuts across the skin, about 2-inches apart and 1/2-inch deep. Cut diagonally down the slashes to form a diamond pattern; season the meat generously with salt and pepper. Chop about 8 of the sage leaves and put it in a bowl; mix with the oil to make a paste. Rub the sage-oil all over the ham, being sure to get the flavor into all the slits. Bake the ham for 2 hours. Now there is plenty of time to bang-out the tangerine glaze.
  • For the glaze: Place a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chunks of butter, tangerines, tangerine juice, brown sugar, water, and spices. Slowly cook the liquid down to a syrupy glaze; this should take about 30 to 40 minutes.
  • After the ham has been going for a couple of hours, pour the tangerine glaze all over it, with the pieces of fruit and all. Scatter the remaining sage leaves on top and stick the ham back in the oven and continue to cook for 11/2 hours, basting with the juices every 30 minutes.
  • Scatter the carrots around the ham and coat in the tangerine glaze. Stick the ham once again back in the oven and cook for a final 30 minutes, until the carrots are tender, the ham is dark and crispy, and the whole thing is glistening with a sugary glaze.
  • Set the ham on a cutting board to rest before carving. Serve the carrots and tangerine glaze on the side.

CUMIN AND ORANGE GLAZED CARROTS

Categories     Side     Orange     Spice     Carrot     Simmer     Gourmet     Vegan     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 navel oranges
4 pounds medium carrots (24), peeled
3 1/2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 3/4 cups water
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Special Equipment
parchment paper or wax paper

Steps:

  • Cut out a round from parchment paper to fit just inside a 12-inch heavy skillet (3 inches deep), then set round aside.
  • Cut peel, including all white pith, from oranges with a sharp paring knife. Working over a bowl, cut segments free from membranes, letting segments fall into bowl, then squeeze 1/2 cup juice from membranes into another bowl (discard membranes). Chop orange segments and reserve.
  • Cut a 1-inch-thick diagonal slice from a carrot and set aside, then roll carrot away from you 90 degrees and cut another 1-inch-thick diagonal slice. (Shape will resemble a trapezoidal log. If carrots are very thick, cut slices in half lengthwise as well). Cut up rest of carrot in same manner, then repeat with remaining carrots.
  • Heat oil in skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then add cumin seeds and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add carrots, water, orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and pepper. Cover carrots directly with parchment round and simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Remove parchment, then continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until most of liquid is evaporated and carrots are tender and glazed, about 20 minutes more. Serve warm or at room temperature, sprinkled with chopped orange.

Tips:

  • Preheat the oven to the correct temperature before starting to cook the ham. This will help to ensure that the ham is cooked evenly throughout.
  • Score the ham by making shallow cuts across the top of the ham. This will help the glaze to penetrate the ham and give it more flavor.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the ham. The ham is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius) for a medium-rare ham, 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius) for a medium ham, or 150 degrees Fahrenheit (66 degrees Celsius) for a well-done ham.
  • Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes after cooking before carving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the ham and make it more tender.
  • Serve the ham with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, mashed sweet potatoes, or green beans.

Conclusion:

Orange glazed ham with baby carrots is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any special occasion. The ham is juicy and flavorful, and the baby carrots are sweet and tender. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
