Spiced Glazed Ham
- 1 None bone-in cooked ham (8-9 lbs)
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup dry sherry or whisky
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tsp ground ginger
- 2 tsp ground mustard
- None None Whole cloves, to garnish
- Preheat the oven to 350u0b0F. To remove skin from ham, make a cut around shank into skin only, about 4 inches from knuckle. Loosen rind around edges by running a thumb underneath. Pull rind gently away from fat in one piece. Discard rind. Score fat in a diamond pattern, taking care not to cut into flesh.
- Place ham in a baking pan. Cover with foil and bake 45 mins. Remove foil. Increase oven to 400u0b0F.
- Meanwhile, combine orange juice, sherry, brown sugar, ground ginger and mustard in a small bowl. Spread 1/2 of glaze mixture over ham. Stud each diamond of ham fat with a clove. Bake for another 30-40 mins, basting approximately every 10 mins with remaining glaze, until ham is a rich, shiny golden brown.
- Serve ham hot or cooled to room temperature. Carve thin slices from opposite end to hock.
