Waffles With Frizzled Ham And Maple Mustard Cream Recipes

WAFFLED HAM AND CHEESE MELT WITH MAPLE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the waffle iron on low.
• Spread a thin, even layer of butter on one side of each piece of bread.
• Pile the cheese and ham on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, and put the open-face sandwich in the waffle iron as far away from the hinge as possible. (This allows the lid to press down on the sandwich more evenly.) Place the second slice of bread on top, with the buttered side up, and close the waffle iron.
• Check the sandwich after 3 minutes. About halfway through, you may need to rotate the sandwich 180 degrees to ensure even pressure and cooking. If you'd like, you can press down on the lid of the waffle iron a bit to compact the sandwich, but do so carefully-the lid could be very hot. Remove the sandwich from the waffle iron when the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
• Spread the Maple Butter on the outside of the sandwich. Slice in half diagonally and serve.

BAKED HAM WITH MAPLE MUSTARD GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the ham in a roasting dish with 1 cup water in the bottom of the dish. Roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes. (Check the ham after 45 minutes and add more water if necessary or tent with aluminum foil if it is getting past a dark golden brown.)
• Meanwhile, combine the syrup, mustard, soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire and cayenne in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
• If you used it, remove the foil from the ham and slather the ham with the glaze. Return the ham to the oven uncovered. Continue to roast, brushing the ham with the glaze every 15 minutes, until the internal temperature is between 140 and 150 degrees F, another 1 hour and 30 minutes. (If the ham starts to become too dark on the outside, tent it with aluminum foil. We are looking for a dark, sticky, flavorful glaze on the outside of the ham. Use all the glaze! Really slather it on!)
• Remove the ham from the oven, remove the foil, brush with any remaining glaze and cook, uncovered for another 5 minutes. Let it rest for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.

MAPLE MUSTARD GLAZE FOR HAM

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients.
• Tip: When using on ham, bake ham at 400 degrees, cooking approximately 10 minutes per pound.
• Add the glaze during the last 30 minutes.
• You can also add the ham dripping (extended with chicken stock if necessary) to the remainder of the glaze in a sauce pan and bring to a boil for a great sauce!

MAPLE-GLAZED HAM WITH MAPLE-MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim fat and rind from ham. Score outside of ham in a diamond pattern. Place ham on rack coated with cooking spray, and place rack in a shallow roasting pan.
• Combine 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tablespoons mustard, orange rind, and orange juice; stir well, and brush over ham.
• Bake at 425 degrees for 5 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and cook an additional hour and 30 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Baste ham with maple syrup mixture every 30 minutes. Transfer ham to a platter and let stand 15 minutes before slicing.
• Combine remaining syrup, remaining mustard, and marmalade in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat 3 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring constantly.

WAFFLES WITH FRIZZLED HAM AND MAPLE-MUSTARD CREAM

Steps:

• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ham; sauté until ham is heated through and ends are curled, about 5 minutes. Stir in cream, syrup, and mustard. Simmer until sauce is slightly thickened and coats ham, about 3 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup onions.
• Top toasted waffles with ham mixture. Sprinkle with remaining onions.
