Dijon Glazed Ham Recipes

DIJON-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Place ham, fat side up, in roasting pan sprayed with cooking spray. Diagonally score surface of ham; cover with foil.
• Bake 1 hr. Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients until blended.
• Remove and discard foil from ham; brush with about 1/3 of the jam mixture. Bake, uncovered, 1 hr. or until ham is heated through (140ºF), brushing with remaining jam mixture every 20 min.
• Transfer ham to cutting board; tent with foil. Let stand 15 min. before carving ham to serve.

THE BEST HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes and trim off any skin. If your ham is not a spiral-cut ham, use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat.
• Place the ham, flat side down, on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1 cup water into the pan. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound-reduce the time to 10 minutes per pound for a spiral-cut ham).
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the brown sugar, maple syrup, soy sauce, orange zest and juice, Dijon, vinegar, cinnamon, cloves, onion powder and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until the glaze has thickened and reduced by half (you should have 1 cup glaze), 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside until the ham is ready.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Brush half of the glaze over the ham. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add 1 cup water. Return the ham to the oven and roast for 30 minutes, brushing with the remaining glaze every 10 minutes (two more times) before returning to the oven.
• Let the ham cool for 15 minutes before thinly slicing.

DIJON MUSTARD GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• SCORE ham and stud with cloves. Place ham on rack in roasting pan. Bake at 325°F for 1 1/2 to 2 1/4 hours or until internal temperature of 140°F.
• COMBINE Mustard, Worcestershire and sugar in small saucepan. Heat just to a boil until sugar melts, stirring.
• BASTE ham with glaze often during the last 30 minutes of baking. Serve with additional glaze or Dijon mustard on the side.
• Flavor Variation: Orange Marmalade Glaze: Combine 3/4 cup orange marmalade, 1/3 cup FRENCH'S Honey Mustard and 2 tbsp. orange juice in saucepan. Stir and heat until melted and smooth.

DIJON MAPLE GLAZED SPIRAL HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Place ham in a roasting pan and pour about 3/4 cup water into the bottom of pan. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour and 40 minutes or until heated through, soft and tender.
• Make the glaze:
• Whisk all ingredients together in a saucepan until smooth and heat over medium-low to medium heat until simmering. Simmer for 2 minutes and remove from heat.
• When ham is heated through, remove the aluminum foil, and pour or brush the glaze over the top to cover completely. Raise oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Return the ham to the oven and cook, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until glaze is caramelized and bubbly. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with desired fixings.

HONEY-DIJON HAM

Steps:

• Place ham on a greased rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 50-60 minutes. Combine honey, mustard and sugar; brush about 3 tablespoons over ham. Bake 10-15 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 140° and ham is heated through. Stir into remaining glaze; heat through and serve with the ham.
