Penzey's Spices Catalog of Seasoning
List of Ingredients
- 1 smoked bone-in ham
- 15 to 30 whole cloves (choose nice, large whole ones)
- 2 bay leaves
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 Tbsp crushed brown mustard seed
- 2 tsp regular mustard powder
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- Good pinch of ground cloves
- 1/4 cup water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees (F).
- Wash the ham and score the skin, if you plan to leave it on. Stud with as many cloves as desired. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Place in oven and roast 12 to 14 minutes per pound (to an internal temperature of 120 degrees). This will take 2 to 3 hours for a larger ham.
- Remove ham from oven; raise temperature to 425 degrees (F). Whisk together glaze ingredients, then brush over ham to coat. Return to oven and bake 10 to 15 minutes, until the glaze has formed a shiny coating.
Remove from oven and let stand 10 to 15 minutes. (A ham can wait quite a bit, if it has to.) Carve into thin slices and serve.
