A delightful glaze to enhance your holiday ham with warm spices and a hint of sweetness.
Combine all the glaze ingredients in a medium saucepan.
Stir continuously to ensure the ingredients blend smoothly and avoid sticking.
Heat the mixture over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
Keep an eye on the heat to prevent the glaze from boiling over.
Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
This step allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
During the last 30 minutes of cooking your ham, remove it from the oven and brush generously with the glaze.
Ensure the ham is evenly coated for a consistent flavor.
Return the ham to the oven and cook uncovered for the remaining 30 minutes.
This step helps the glaze caramelize and adhere to the ham.
Serve the ham with the remaining glaze on the side for extra flavor.
Garnish with fresh herbs or fruit slices for an elegant presentation.
