I don't know about you, But in my household at Holiday time, I have to bake a ham instead of turkey. That tradition started years ago when my family grew up and had families of their own. They have turkey at their homes and come to Nanny and Papa's for the Ham special - this is one of the recipe that I tried years ago and it was delicious!! Ingredients:
1/4 cup pure maple syrup |
2 tablespoons whole grain dijon mustard |
6 lbs fully cooked bone-in spiral ham |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1 1/2 cups 25% less sodium chicken broth |
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme |
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine |
1/4 cup chopped shallot |
Directions:
1. Mix 2 tablespoons syrup and 1 tablespoon mustard.
2. Place ham in roasting pan. Cover and bake in center of oven. Half an hour before end of expected bake time, uncover, brush with syrup mixture and bake 30 minutes more, or until meat thermometer reads 165°F Reserve 2 tablespoons pan drippings.
3. Mix cornstarch, broth, thyme, black pepper, remaining syrup and remaining mustard until smooth. Set side.
4. Heat butter in small saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until tender. Stir cornstarch mixture and add. Add reserved pan drippings; heat to a boil and cook until mixture boils and thickens, stirring constantly. Serve sauce with ham,.
