Ukrainian Easter Ham

1. 1

   Remove covering from ham and wipe with a wet paper towel, then dry ham.

2. 2

   Trim fat to 1/2 inch.

   Score the surface in a diamond pattern to let the glaze penetrate and stick to the surface better.

4. 4

   On a wire rack in a large open pan, bake at 350F for 45 to 60 minutes.

5. 5

7. 7

   Remove from oven and baste again.

8. 8
