Best Baked Ham With Rhubarb In Balsamic Vinegar Sauce Recipes

BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place ham in a roasting pan, and press whole cloves into the top at 1 to 2 inch intervals. Pack the top with a layer of brown sugar. Pour enough water into the bottom of the roasting pan to come to a 1 inch depth. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil or a lid.
• Bake for 4 1/2 to 5 hours in the preheated oven (about 22 minutes per pound), or until the internal temperature of the ham has reached 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Make sure the meat thermometer is not touching the bone. Let stand for about 20 minutes before carving.

BAKED HAM WITH BALSAMIC BROWN SUGAR GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Place ham, fat side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of ham and does not touch bone or rest in fat. Cover loosely and bake 1 hour 15 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 135°F (13 to 17 minutes per pound).
• About 20 minutes before ham is done, remove from oven. Pour drippings from pan. Remove any skin from ham. Mix brown sugar, vinegar and mustard; pat or brush on ham. Bake uncovered 20 minutes longer.
• Cover ham loosely and let stand about 10 minutes or until thermometer reads 140°F. Garnish with orange slices and cherries.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH RHUBARB VINEGAR

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Arrange the asparagus on a rimmed baking sheet, in a single layer, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and roll the stalks around to coat evenly. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast, shaking the pan several times to turn the asparagus, until the tips are browned and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rhubarb and cook an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and simmer until the rhubarb is broken down but not mushy and the flavors are infused, 10 to 12 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat and simmer until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes.
• To serve, arrange the asparagus on a large platter, drizzle with the rhubarb vinegar and season with salt and pepper, to taste.

ROASTED RHUBARB, GARLIC, AND ONION BARBEQUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spread rhubarb, onion, and garlic on a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer roasted rhubarb, onion, and garlic to a blender; puree until very smooth.
• Pour rhubarb puree into a large pot. Stir in beer, brown sugar, ketchup, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, liquid smoke, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and flavors combine, about 15 minutes.

EASY BAKED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Remove as much of the ham from the bone as you can. Layer one third of the ham in the bottom of a 6 quart casserole dish. Top with a few pineapple rings and 1/4 of the brown sugar. Repeat the layers, ending with pineapple rings on top, but don't sprinkle the last 1/4 of brown sugar.
• Pour any juice left in the pineapple can over the ham. Then pour in enough of the ginger ale to fill the dish about half way. Sprinkle the remaining brown sugar over the top.
• Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. Uncover and cook for an additional 20 minutes.

HAM WITH RHUBARB SAUCE

Steps:

• Put ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
• Add water and cover with foil.
• Roast at 325 degrees until meat thermometer registers 135 degrees.
• In the meantime combine remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, about 15 minutes; stir occasionally.
• Remove cinnamon stick.
• The last 15 minutes of baking time, remove foil from ham and spoon small amount of sauce over the ham (return to oven for remaining time).
• Remove and allow ham to stand, covered, about 10 minutes.
• Serve remaining sauce with ham.

FRESH HAM WITH MAPLE-BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Using a sharp knife, score entire surface of ham in a diamond pattern, cutting down just through the skin to the flesh underneath. (If you are cutting to the right depth, the skin will spread apart a bit as you cut.) Rub outside of ham all over with salt and pepper, pressing it into crosshatch spaces between the skin. Put roast on a rack in a large roasting pan and place in oven.
• After 20 minutes, reduce oven to 300 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, balsamic vinegar and cinnamon. Baste ham hourly with mixture, as well as with fat from the bottom of the pan, roasting until the very center of the ham reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2 1/2 to 3 hours total cooking time. (Begin checking at 2 hours, inserting a meat thermometer into the absolute center of the roast.)
• Put the toasted pecans and candied ginger into a food processor and pulse lightly until crumbled and well combined.
• When ham is done, remove it from roasting pan, shower with pecan-ginger mixture and cover it loosely with foil. Allow the meat to rest for 20 to 30 minutes. (Its internal temperature will rise to 150 or more as it rests.)
• Tip roasting pan to the side so you can spoon off all the fat from the pan juices, then place pan on stove over medium-high heat. Scrape the bottom of pan to free any browned bits, skim any film off surface and season liquid as needed with salt and pepper. Pour into a gravy boat.
• Carve ham into thick slices, drizzle with pan sauce and serve, passing remaining sauce on the side.

BROILED HAM STEAKS WITH RHUBARB CHUTNEY

Steps:

• Toast mustard seeds in medium saucepan over medium heat until beginning to pop, about 2 minutes. Add next 7 ingredients. Simmer until rhubarb is tender, 5 minutes. Increase heat to high; boil until mixture thickens, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat broiler. Broil ham (do not turn) until brown at edges, about 3 minutes. Serve with chutney.
