Spiced Glazed Ham

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. To remove skin from ham, make a cut around shank into skin only, about 4 inches from knuckle. Loosen rind around edges by running a thumb underneath. Pull rind gently away from fat in one piece. Discard rind. Score fat in a diamond pattern, taking care not to cut into flesh.

2. 2

   Place ham in a baking pan. Cover with foil and bake 45 mins. Remove foil. Increase oven to 400u00b0F.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, combine orange juice, sherry, brown sugar, ground ginger and mustard in a small bowl. Spread 1/2 of glaze mixture over ham. Stud each diamond of ham fat with a clove. Bake for another 30-40 mins, basting approximately every 10 mins with remaining glaze, until ham is a rich, shiny golden brown.

4. 4

   Serve ham hot or cooled to room temperature. Carve thin slices from opposite end to hock.
