SPICY MAPLE-GLAZED SPIRAL HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 380 degrees F. Whisk gochujang, apple juice, maple syrup, Worcestershire sauce, and espresso in a small bowl.
• Place ham onto a rack fitted over a sheet pan. Generously brush the glaze all over the ham with a pastry or silicone brush. The glaze will seep into the ham, giving it a burnished finish throughout. Bake 1-1½ hours, depending on the size of your ham, basting every 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes, for the first basting, the spiral cuts will begin to brown and separate. Baste all over, then place back in the oven. The ham will be basted 5-6 times in total, for a bubbly, burnished finish.
• Remove ham from oven and pull away the outermost layer from the cut side (this slice will be dried out). Let rest while preparing the garnish. Lay kale or cabbage leaves onto a platter, then sprinkle with pomegranate seeds. Gently place the ham on the leaves and serve.

SUNNY'S EASY HOLIDAY SPIRAL HAM

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, honey, orange zest, 1/4 cup orange juice, pumpkin pie spice, and nutmeg. Season with salt.
• Roll out enough aluminum foil to surround the ham and place the ham in the center of the foil. Peel back the layers of the ham and place a sprig of thyme between every other layer of the spirals. Pour half of the glaze over the ham allowing it to sink into the slices. Tightly wrap the ham in the foil and place on a rack in a roasting pan. Fill the pan with an inch of water and roast in the oven until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F, about 20 minutes per pound.
• Pour the remaining half of the glaze in a small saucepot on medium heat and bring to a simmer. Whisk until small bubbles appear all over, then turn off the heat. The glaze will thicken as it rests.
• Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F.
• Remove the ham from the oven. Using caution and tongs to help, peel back the aluminum foil from the top, leaving the aluminum foil on the sides and underneath the ham to catch the glaze and juices. Slather the remaining glaze all over the top of the ham and place back in the oven uncovered for 15 more minutes. Remove and let rest before slicing.
