Ham with Cranberry Glaze
1 jellied cranberry sauce
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1 5 lb. ham
1/3 cup water
Preheat oven to 325 F. In a small saucepan combine cranberry sauce,
brown sugar, orange juice, cloves, cinnamon and allspice. Heat
slowly, stirring until smooth.
Place ham on rack in a shallow roasting pan with water. Insert a
meat thermometer. Bake until thermometer registers 125 F, 1-1/2 to 2
hours. Brush a third of the glaze on the ham 30 minutes before the
end of the baking time. Spoon on the remaining glaze every 10
minutes. After removing ham from oven, let stand 15 minutes before
carving. |
