BAKED HAM RECIPE WITH FRUIT GLAZE

Steps:

• Take the ham out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about an hour.
• Drain, rinse and pat dry the ham. Set the ham skin-side up on a cutting board.
• With a sharp paring knife, score the ham crossways at 2-inch intervals, making a diamond pattern. This will make it easier to remove the skin and excess fat later.
• Preheat oven to 325 F. Meanwhile mix up the ingredients for the glaze in a glass bowl and set it aside.
• Line a large roasting pan with aluminum foil, and pour 2 cups of water into the pan.
• Set a roasting rack in the pan and place the ham, skin-side up, on the rack. Insert a probe thermometer into the deepest part of the ham, being careful not to hit the bone. Transfer to the oven and bake for about 3 hours or until the thermometer reads 120 F.
• Remove the ham from the oven, take out the thermometer, and with a pair of tongs pull the skin and excess fat off the ham. Leave about 1/4 inch of fat all around.
• Now generously brush the ham with the glaze so that it is thickly covered. Insert the probe thermometer in a different spot and return the ham to the oven. Bake for another hour or until the thermometer reads 140 F.
• Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for about 30 minutes, then carve and serve. One 15-pound ham will serve 20 people, but even if you have fewer people, the leftovers are wonderful. For a different sort of glaze, you can use maple syrup or honey in Step 8 instead of preserves.

PINEAPPLE APRICOT GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• The ham is going to take about 15 minutes per pound to cook and then add an additional 45 minutes for the glaze. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Start by taking your ham and placing it with the flat side down. This is the side that is meat without the skin. Then gently, with a sharp knife, score the ham in a criss-cross pattern. Don't go too deep. Just enough to get through the skin. Place a clove in the ham at each intersection of the score marks you just made. Place the ham on the roasting rack with the flat side down and fill the bottom of the pan with about 1/4 inch of water. Bake for 15 minutes per each pound of ham. When the ham reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees you are reading to start basting the ham. To make the glaze first you are going to zest the 2 limes and set aside the lime zest. Slice the limes in half and squeeze the juice of the limes into a saucepan. Add the slices of ginger root and pineapple juice. Bring to a boil and keep boiling until the juice has reduce to about a 1/2 c of liquid. Takes about 8-10 minutes once the mixture starts to boil. Remove the pan from the heat and remove the ginger root then add in the apricot preserves, lime zest, and mustard. I found using a whisk was a great way to get the preserves to combine with the pineapple juice mixture. Take about half of the glaze and pour it over the ham. With a brush, work the glaze into the criss-cross pattern of the ham. Turn the oven up to 425 degrees and let the ham bake for another 10 minutes. Bast the ham with more of the glaze. Repeat this step every 10 minutes until you have a nice caramelized crust on your ham. This step should take about 45 minutes. Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing the ham. You'll have a sweet and juicy ham that pairs perfectly with au gratin potatoes and your favorite vegetable. People will think you spent hours working on this ham when really it's one of the simplest main dishes I've ever made.

CLASSIC PINEAPPLE-APRICOT GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• For the ham: Remove the ham from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Insert the cloves into the ham, placing them at the intersections of the cuts (you may have some cloves left over).
• Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1/4 inch water into the bottom of the pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours and 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound).
• Meanwhile make the glaze: Squeeze the lime juice into a small saucepan. Add the ginger and pineapple juice. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain, then stir in the lime zest, apricot preserves and Dijon.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Pour half the pineapple glaze over the ham and brush to coat. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add more. Return the ham to the oven and roast, basting every 10 minutes with the remaining glaze, until glossy and well browned, about 45 minutes more.
• Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before carving. Carve the ham into slices and serve.
