Honey Glazed Ham And Checkerboard Rolls Recipes

HONEY-GLAZED HAM AND CHECKERBOARD ROLLS

Steps:

• Make the rolls: Butter two 9-by-13-inch baking dishes and divide the frozen rolls between them, spacing them evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and let thaw and rise until almost doubled in size, 2 hours at room temperature.
• Mix the poppy seeds and sesame seeds in one bowl. Mix the cornmeal and Parmesan in another. Brush melted butter on every other roll; sprinkle with the poppy-sesame mixture. Brush the other rolls with the remaining butter and sprinkle with the cornmeal-Parmesan mixture. Cover the pans again and let rise for another 45 minutes to 1 hour. The rolls should be almost touching by now.
• Meanwhile, make the ham: Preheat the oven to 325˚ F. Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/8 inch deep. Stud the top of the ham with the cloves, then put the ham on a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet. Tent with foil and bake for 1 hour.
• Bring the ginger ale, honey, mustard and vinegar to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook until thickened, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham. Return it to the oven for 30 minutes, glazing again halfway through. Let cool slightly, then slice.
• Increase the oven temperature to 400˚ F. Bake the rolls until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with the ham, cheese, marmalade and/or onion jam and more mustard.

• Bake the ham uncovered for 1 hour in the preheated oven.

HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1/8 inch deep. Stud the top of the ham with the cloves, then put it in a roasting pan with a rack, tent it with foil and bake for 1 hour.
• Heat the honey, ginger ale, mustard and vinegar in a small saucepan until bubbly. Cook until reduced and a bit thicker, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Remove the foil and brush the glaze on the ham. Return it to the oven for 15 minutes. Repeat once more. Remove it from the oven and let it rest/cool slightly.

HONEY CARAWAY ROLLS

Steps:

• Prepare the yeast: In a medium bowl, dissolve the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water (between 110 to 120 degrees F). Set aside.
• Make the dough: Oil a medium bowl with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the bread flour with the caraway, honey, molasses, salt and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Mix to blend. Stir in the cottage cheese and the egg. With the mixer on low speed, add the yeast mixture. Transfer the dough to the oiled bowl. (The oil will prevent the dough from sticking to the sides as it rises.) Cover with a towel and put in a warm place to double in volume, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Then gently push the air out of the dough. Cover and let rise again, 1 more hour.
• Prepare the dough: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease two baking sheets with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Divide the dough into 8 even balls and place 4 each in a single layer on each baking sheet. Flatten the balls gently with your hand.
• Bake the bread: Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Place the trays in the center of the oven and bake, undisturbed, 20 to 25 minutes. The tops should be light to medium brown. Remove from the oven. Cool at least 15 minutes.

CHEF JOHN'S HONEY-GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Pour water, star anise, and cloves into the bottom of a roasting pan. Place a roasting rack into the pan over the water, anise, and cloves; place ham on rack. Cut 1/4-inch deep slashes 1/2-inch apart lengthwise and crosswise across the top of the entire ham.
• Bake ham in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Whisk brown sugar, honey, mustard, vinegar, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until glaze has a thick, smooth consistency.
• Brush glaze all over ham. Continue baking ham, brushing glaze on every 20 minutes, until glaze is deep golden and ham is heated through, about 2 hours 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
• Use a kitchen torch to heat the glaze on the ham until it is crispy and caramelized, 2 to 5 minutes.
