Honey
Dijon Ham
- 1 smoked ham, rump or
shank portion
2/3 cup honey
1/3 cup Dijon-style mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- Heat oven to 325°F
(160°C). Place ham in large shallow roasting pan. Bake
until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part registers 125°F
(approximately 50°C), about 1 1/4 hours. Remove from oven,
trim off rind, leaving very thin layer all around. Score ham
by cutting diamond shapes 1/4-inch deep into ham.
- Combine honey, mustard
and cloves in a small bowl. Spoon honey mixture over ham, and
into diamond cuts. Continue baking about 30 minutes, or until
meat thermometer registers 140°F (60°C). Serve with additional
warm glaze, if desired.
