Glazing a ham while cooking is wonderful but the first person to the platter usually makes off the the glazed ends and the rest of the people get a glazed rim . The solution in our house is to make lots of glaze and pour it over each slice. Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar |
1 (10 ounce) can crushed pineapple |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 tablespoon dry mustard or 1 tablespoon prepared mustard |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients in a small saucepan including the juice/syrup from the pineapple.
2. Turn heat on to medium and stir constantly to prevent burning.
3. Continue to heat until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
4. Allow mixture to boil for approximately 1 minute.
5. If mixture refuses to thicken, add more cornstarch- a little at a time.
6. (Be sure to mix your cornstarch with a little cold water in a cup to make a smooth liquidified mixture before adding it to the hot sauce.) Pour finished sauce into a serving bowl, complete with a ladle, and let your guests pour it over baked sliced ham.
