Sticks Of Ham With Honey Recipes

STICKS OF HAM WITH HONEY (TAPAS)

Steps:

• Cut the ham slices into pieces about one inch wide.
• Dip the tips of the bread sticks into the honey (about 2 inches deep) and drain.
• Wrap the ham around the sticks beginning at the tip, overlapping it like a bandage.

HONEY-GLAZED HAM AND CHECKERBOARD ROLLS

Steps:

• Make the rolls: Butter two 9-by-13-inch baking dishes and divide the frozen rolls between them, spacing them evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and let thaw and rise until almost doubled in size, 2 hours at room temperature.
• Mix the poppy seeds and sesame seeds in one bowl. Mix the cornmeal and Parmesan in another. Brush melted butter on every other roll; sprinkle with the poppy-sesame mixture. Brush the other rolls with the remaining butter and sprinkle with the cornmeal-Parmesan mixture. Cover the pans again and let rise for another 45 minutes to 1 hour. The rolls should be almost touching by now.
• Meanwhile, make the ham: Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/8 inch deep. Stud the top of the ham with the cloves, then put the ham on a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet. Tent with foil and bake for 1 hour.
• Bring the ginger ale, honey, mustard and vinegar to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook until thickened, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham. Return it to the oven for 30 minutes, glazing again halfway through. Let cool slightly, then slice.
• Increase the oven temperature to 400˚ F. Bake the rolls until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with the ham, cheese, marmalade and/or onion jam and more mustard.
