Baked Ham With Orange-Mustard Glaze - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 6-8 lb fully cooked, bone-in ham half
1 cup water
1 cup dry sherry or orange juice
2/3 cup orange marmalade
1/3 cup stone ground mustard
3 tsp. dry mustard

Preparation

Heat oven to 325 degrees.
Place ham, fat side up, on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
Pour water into pan.
Bake for 1 hour. Remove ham from oven.
Add sherry or orange juice to roasting pan.
If necessary, trim fat from ham.
Score ham diagonally in 1-inch intervals, cutting about 1/4 inch deep; score in opposite direction to form diamond shapes.
In a small bowl, combine marmalade and mustards; mix well.
Brush half of the marmalade mixture over ham; baste with pan juices. Return to oven; bake 1 to 1-1/2 hours more, basting frequently with pan juices and brushing with remaining marmalade mixture.
Let ham stand in roasting pan for 15 minutes before slicing, basting frequently with pan juices. For the mustard, I use Denison mustard but any with the seeds in it will work.
