Baked Ham With Walnut Peach Sauce Recipes

GLAZED HAM WITH PEACH-GINGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Use a serrated knife to score the top of the ham in a diamond pattern. Press whole cloves into the ham and place on a roasting rack in a roasting pan.
• Bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the preheated oven, or until the internal temperature of the ham has reached 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Cover with aluminum foil if the ham starts to look dry.
• While the ham is baking, mix together the cinnamon, mustard and 1/2 cup of brown sugar in a cup or small bowl. Set aside. In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together the remaining brown sugar, cider vinegar, peach nectar and peach preserves. Bring to a boil and then stir in the sliced peaches, ginger, cherry pepper and the cinnamon stick. Simmer until the peaches are tender and the sauce has thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Remove the ham from the oven and brush liberally with the mustard glaze. Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and return the ham to the oven, uncovered.
• Bake for an additional 20 to 30 minutes, or until glaze is bubbly. Allow the ham to rest for 15 to 20 minutes before carving. Serve with hot Peach-Ginger sauce.

SUPER SIMPLE PEACH GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Rub exterior of ham with dijon mustard. I prefer using Raye's Old World Gourmet Traditional European-Style Dijon Mustard. Pat brown sugar on exterior of ham. Blend peaches and syrup in a blender to the consistency of a puree. Bake ham in a dutch oven with oven-proof lid skin side up accordingly. I baked mine at 325 degrees for 2 hours. Leave lid off for the first twenty-five minutes, but do not baste ham yet. After that, baste with peach puree every 25 minutes. Place lid on dutch oven after each basting. Remove from oven after 2 hours. Slice ham to desired thickness, and serve with warm peach sauce over each slice.

Steps:

• 1. Put ham cut side down in a large deep heavy pot (about 10 quarts) and add water and syrup. Bring liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to low and gently simmer ham, covered, until tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Uncover and cool slightly.
• 2. Preheat oven to 350°F.
• 3. When ham is cool enough to handle, remove from pot, reserving cooking liquid. Then cut off any rind and excess fat, leaving a thin layer. Transfer ham to a roasting pan.
• 4. Drain peaches. Reserve 1/2 to 1 cup of the light syrup.
• 5. Whisk together sugar, mustard, peach syrup, and ground cloves (if using) in a bowl. Spoon over ham. Warm preserves until just runny (35-40 seconds in the microwave) and pour over ham as well.
