Steps:
- Heat oven to 300 degrees.
- Put ham fat side up on a bed of aluminum foil in a pan just big enough to hold it. Place in oven for 2 1/2 hours.
- Remove from oven, and peel off the outer layer of fat. Score top with a sharp knife at 3/4-inch intervals in a checkerboard pattern, about half an inch deep. Return ham to oven.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the jelly with the red wine and reduce until mixture is slightly syrupy, about 6 minutes. Baste ham lightly with the glaze every 10 minutes or so for 1 1/2 hours.
- Let cool for 30 minutes; then decorate with a thin line of parsley along every third scored line.

[email protected]This ham was a hit at our Easter dinner! The red currant glaze was tangy and sweet, and it paired perfectly with the salty ham. The meat was moist and tender, and it fell right off the bone.
