Christmas recipe 🍗
Maple, Honey, and Mustard Glazed Ham Recipe
Ingredients:
- 100 grams (½ cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
- 80ml (⅓ cup) maple syrup
- 80ml (⅓ cup) honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 whole leg ham, approximately 8 kilograms, bone-in
- Whole cloves, for studding
Instructions:
- Prepare the Glaze:
- In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, honey, and Dijon mustard. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
- Preheat the Oven:
- Set your oven to 170°C.
- Line a large baking dish with two layers of non-stick baking paper.
- Position an oven shelf in the lowest slot and remove any other shelves to accommodate the ham.
- Prepare the Ham:
- Using a sharp knife, cut around the shank end of the ham, about 10 centimetres from the tip.
- Gently run the knife under the rind at the edge of the ham to loosen it.
- Carefully peel off the rind in one piece, leaving the fat layer intact.
- Score the fat in a diamond pattern, making cuts approximately 5 millimetres deep.
- Stud the centre of each diamond with a whole clove.
- Place the prepared ham in the lined baking dish.
- Glaze and Bake:
- Brush one-third of the glaze mixture over the surface of the ham.
- Bake the ham in the preheated oven, basting with additional glaze every 25 minutes, for a total of 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the ham is golden and caramelized.
- Serve:
- Once done, remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before carving.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, accompanied by your favourite sides.
This recipe yields a beautifully glazed ham with a perfect balance of sweetness and tang, making it an ideal centrepiece for your festive table.
