Easy Orange And Ginger Glazed Ham Recipes

ORANGE MARMALADE GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Trim off any skin from the ham. Score the ham in a diagonal crosshatch pattern (about 1-inch apart) without cutting through into the meat. Place the ham, flat-side down, fattier side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour a 1/2-inch of water in the bottom of the pan. Cover with aluminum foil and roast, about 1 hour. Remove the foil, add more water if the water has dried up and recover loosely with the foil. Continue to bake until the ham reaches 130 degrees F, adding more water if needed to keep the roasting pan from burning, 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours more (about 15 minutes per pound).
• Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees F. Whisk the marmalade, mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, coriander, ginger, allspice and a generous amount of black pepper in a liquid measuring cup. Spoon off about 1/4 cup of the pan juices from the ham and whisk into the glaze mixture. Brush about half of the glaze all over the ham. Continue to bake, brushing the ham with the glaze twice more until the surface of the ham is caramelized and the internal temperature in the center of the ham reads 140 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, adding more water if the bottom of the pan dries out and begins to burn, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer the ham to a cutting board or platter and let rest for 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with the rosemary, oranges and any additional glaze on the side.

ORANGE-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Score the surface of the ham, making diamond shapes 1/2 in. deep. Combine mustard and allspice; rub over ham., Bake, uncovered, at 325° until a thermometer reads 140°, 2 to 2-1/4 hours. Spread top of ham with marmalade during the last hour of baking, basting occasionally.

SPICED GINGER-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Put the gammon in a large pan and cover with 2 litres of ginger ale. Top up with water to cover the joint, if you need to. Add the whole allspice berries and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low, and simmer gently, covered, for 2½ hrs. Top up with water, if you need to, while it's simmering.
• Drain the ham and leave until it's cool enough to handle while you make the glaze. Put the remaining ginger ale in a pan with the sugar, grated ginger and crushed allspice. Simmer, uncovered, for 20-25 mins until syrupy.
• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Remove the skin from the ham, leaving a layer of fat, then score the fat in a criss-cross pattern. Transfer the ham to a foil-lined roasting tin, and brush over half the glaze. Roast for 15 mins, then glaze with the remaining syrup. Increase the temperature to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and roast for a further 15-20 mins until you get a sticky golden crust. Leave to cool for 15 mins before carving. Drizzle over more glaze from the tin to serve, if you like. Can be made ahead and chilled for up to four days.

GINGER GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Place the joint in a large pan over the hob, or burner, and add 7 quarts of dry ginger ale. Bring the pan to the boil then lower the heat slightly so that it keeps bubbling steadily for 4 1/2 hours.
• Towards the end of the 4 1/2 hours, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and begin the glaze.
• In a bowl, add 1 cup of chunky ginger preserves. Stir in 2 tablespoons of hot English mustard. Add 1/2 a cup of soft, dark brown sugar and sprinkle in 1/2 a teaspoon of ground cloves.
• After 4 1/2 hours, gently lift the ham out of the pan and place on a foil-lined baking tray. Carefully cut away the skin, leaving a thin layer of fat. There is no need to score the surface, simply slap on the glaze and place the tray with the ham into the oven for 20 minutes.
• Serve hot or cold.
