PINEAPPLE MUSTARD GLAZED HAM
A baked spiral-sliced ham garnished with pineapple slices has a very retro feel. It's a recipe many of us are happy to revisit, especially around the holidays. Keeping the ham tightly wrapped in foil while it's in the oven ensures the meat will be succulent and juicy. Use canned pineapple slices packed in juice-fresh pineapple will not be as juicy and may dry out too quickly during cooking.

Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 325°F. Oil a large roasting pan.
- If ham comes wrapped in plastic, rinse ham and pat dry. Cut away and discard any thick skin with a sharp paring knife, leaving a 1-inch band around shank end, then cut away all but about an 1/8-inch layer of fat where possible. Put ham, cut side down, in roasting pan. Pour 3/4 cup pineapple juice around ham and cover pan tightly with foil, then bake 1 hour.
- While ham is baking, combine sugar and remaining 2 1/4 cups pineapple juice in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart heavy saucepan and gently boil, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 3/4 cup, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer pineapple syrup to a bowl and cool 5 minutes. Whisk in mustard, salt, and pepper, then pour 1/2 cup into a small bowl and stir in thyme. Reserve remaining mustard mixture for serving.
- Discard foil from pan and brush ham with thyme mustard mixture, then bake, basting with pan juices occasionally, until thermometer inserted into center of meat (do not touch bone) registers 145 to 150°F, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. If pan juices evaporate during baking, add 1/2 cup water. Transfer ham to a platter, discarding pan juices, and let stand, uncovered, 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. Serve ham with reserved mustard mixture on the side.
Tips:
- Choose a high-quality ham. Look for a ham that is fully cooked and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the ham is moist and flavorful.
- Score the ham. This will help the glaze penetrate the ham and create a crispy crust.
- Make the glaze ahead of time. This will give the flavors time to meld and develop.
- Baste the ham regularly. This will help keep the ham moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Let the ham rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the ham, making it more tender and flavorful.
