Best Glazed Ham With Cherry Sauce Recipes

STICKY CHERRY GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 160°C/320ºF.
• Place the ham in a large roasting dish. Add the onion, garlic, rosemary, apple juice and water. Cover tightly with foil and place in a preheated oven.
• Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes per 500g/1lb. A 4kg/8lb ham/gammon will need 2 hours 40 minutes.
• When the ham is cooked, remove from the oven and turn the heat up to 200°C/390ºF.
• In a small saucepan, combine all the glaze ingredients and allow to come to the boil. Cook until the sugar has dissolved and the cherries are soft. Remove the cinnamon and ginger then blend with an immersion blender.
• Cut the skin off the gammon and cut a diamond pattern into the fat.
• Pour the glaze over the gammon and place back in the oven to cook for another 20-30 minutes.
• Allow the glaze to get sticky but check on it regularly as it can burn quickly. Glaze the ham once or twice while baking to allow the glaze to get thick and sticky. When the glaze is sticky and dark, remove from the oven.
• Allow the ham to cool for 30 minutes then slice and serve.

CHERRY HAM GLAZE

Steps:

• Stir together water, vinegar, corn syrup, preserves, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes.
• Brush 1/4 to 1/3 cup of this glaze over your ham about 30 minutes before it is finished baking. Stir any ham drippings into the remaining glaze and serve alongside the sliced ham.

CHERRY SAUCE FOR HAM

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5-10 minutes. Serve with ham.

BAKED HAM WITH SPICED CHERRY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a roasting pan with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Score the top and sides of the ham with a small sharp knife in a crisscross pattern. Put the ham in the prepared pan, flat-side down, and pour the wine or water into the bottom of the pan. Tent loosely with foil and bake until a thermometer inserted into the center of the ham registers 140 degrees F, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the glaze: Combine the preserves, horseradish sauce, brown sugar, cinnamon, cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the lemon juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook until the glaze is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon zest; let cool. Add more lemon juice to taste, if needed.
• Remove the ham from the oven, uncover and brush with about 1/4 cup of the glaze. Bake, uncovered, 20 more minutes, brushing the ham with another 1/4 cup glaze halfway through. Remove from the oven, brush with more glaze and transfer to a cutting board. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the remaining glaze.

BAKED HAM WITH SPICED CHERRY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a roasting pan with foil and spray it with nonstick spray.
• Score the top and sides of the ham with a small sharp knife in a crisscross pattern. Put the ham in the pan, pour 1/2 cup water or white wine into the bottom of the pan and bake, covered loosely with a tent of foil, 45 to 60 minutes.
• To make the glaze, combine the preserves, horseradish, brown sugar, cinnamon, cumin, cardamom, salt, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Transfer the cherry mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil until the glaze is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in the lemon zest.
• Remove the ham from the oven and brush the top with 1/4 cup of the glaze. Bake, uncovered, until the ham is hot and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, about 20 minutes longer. Remove the ham from the oven to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Arrange the sliced ham on a serving platter and serve with the reserved glaze.

• 4. Stir the cornstarch mixture in the skillet. Cook and stir until the mixture boils and thickens.
• 5. Place the oven bag into a large roasting pan at least 2 inches deep. Place the ham into the oven bag. Pour the cherry glaze over the ham. Close the oven bag with the nylon tie. Cut 6 (1/2-inch) slits in the top of the oven bag. Tuck the ends of the bag under to seal.
• 6. Bake at 250°F. for 1 1/2 hours or until the ham is heated through. Remove the ham from the oven bag to a serving platter. Spoon some of the cherry glaze over the ham. Serve the remaining cherry glaze with the ham.
