Pineapple Glaze for Baked Ham image

Posted at the request of my sister. Glazing a ham while cooking is wonderful but the first person to the platter usually makes off the the glazed ends and the rest of the people get a "glazed rim". The solution in our house is to make lots of glaze and pour it over each slice!

Time 15m

Yield 2 cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup brown sugar
1 (10 ounce) can crushed pineapple
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon dry mustard or 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients in a small saucepan including the juice/syrup from the pineapple.
  • Turn heat on to medium and stir constantly to prevent burning.
  • Continue to heat until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
  • Allow mixture to boil for approximately 1 minute.
  • If mixture refuses to thicken, add more cornstarch- a little at a time.
  • (Be sure to mix your cornstarch with a little cold water in a cup to make a smooth liquidified mixture before adding it to the hot sauce.) Pour finished sauce into a serving bowl, complete with a ladle, and let your guests pour it over baked sliced ham.
