A delightful twist on the classic glazed ham, featuring a honey and citrus glaze that enhances the natural flavors of the ham.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the ham inside for even cooking.
Place the ham in a roasting pan, fat side up. Score the fat into a diamond pattern.
Scoring the fat allows the glaze to penetrate and flavor the ham more effectively.
Bake the ham uncovered for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Cover the ham loosely with foil if it starts to brown too quickly.
In a mixing bowl, combine honey, the juice and zest of the oranges, cinnamon, nutmeg, and dry mustard. Mix well to create the glaze.
Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Spoon half of the glaze over the ham, ensuring it covers the surface evenly. Return the ham to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
Baste the ham with the glaze every few minutes to build up a rich, caramelized coating.
Spoon the remaining glaze over the ham and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Keep an eye on the ham to prevent the glaze from burning.
Remove the ham from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the ham more tender and flavorful.
Slice the ham and serve with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
Arrange the slices on a platter for an elegant presentation.
