Once that is done go ahead and coat the ham with the juices from the pineapple. Only go about 1/2 inch deep so you don’t end up cutting through the slices. If you have a family that can take the heat you can always add some cayenne pepper to the mix and kick it up a notch! Sweet, salty and heat go great together.ĭad likes to add some diagonal scores to the ham to give it a nice look and also let some of the spices penetrate the exterior. The sweetness compliments the saltiness of the ham perfectly. Since the sweet glaze is just on the exterior you only end up getting small portions of it in each bite. You can actually eat it cold right out of the package if you wanted to.Įven though this seems like it would be really sweet it is not. You are in fact warming it more than cooking it. Making a spiral sliced ham is really easy. 💡 Tip - The best tool I have found for applying glazes or brushing on any sauce is the Oxo Good Grip Silicone Pastry Brush.Jump to Recipe Jump to Video Print Recipe You are just warming the ham If you have any leftover glaze, save it to add to slices when serving. Brush with the glaze and return until your ham is done. If you are tracking the temperature of your ham, add the glaze when the ham hits around 120 degrees. This should give it plenty of time to setup without burning. In the last 20 minutes or so of cooking your ham is when you need to apply the glaze. You just need to heat it up, then set aside. Make sure it's large enough so that you can stir it without splattering the glaze all over your stove top. RELATED - What Ingredients are Found in Ham? 🥄 InstructionsĬombine all the ingredients together in a sauce pan. Dried zante currants are easier to find, but if you can get actual dried red or black currants by all means use them. Lots of confusing marketing going on here. The zante currants that were in that glaze are actually dried Champagne grapes, which are not made from Champagne. If you liked the dried currants that were in the original Costco glaze you add about ¼ cup of them. Buy them whole and grind them up yourself with a mortar and pestle. Pemba Cloves from Burlap & Barrel are my favorite. You often see some old school ham recipes with whole cloves stuck right into the ham. I also decided to add some ground cloves. It just enriches the glaze without screaming their Worcestershire sauce in it. The Worcestershire sauce may seem strange but it goes really well and you only need a little. In order to balance out the sweetness, I added some white wine vinegar (you could use red wine for a more intense flavor). The pectin in the jam would give the glaze some body. Since it's easier to find I choose red currant jam. That glaze included currant juice, dried zante currants, Worcestershire sauce, and a few other ingredients. I went back to the ingredients that appeared in the red currant glaze Costco use to provide. Here is what you will need to make the glaze. Number 2 is a simple brown sugar-dijon mustard glaze.
Glaze Number 1 is my interpretation of the currant glaze that Costco use to offer. Since I was cooking two ham halves at once, I thought why not do two different glazes at the same time. As for the glaze, I got you covered - so your ham can be covered in flavor! No problem, just buy two halves to get a whole ham. Sometime in 2016, Costco decided to get rid of the glaze and go to selling the ham in only half size portions. I wasn't a big fan myself of the dried currants that was in the glaze but nevertheless, still made for a tasty ham. I prefer to make glazes myself but I used the one that came with it for review purposes. This ham also came with a glaze - a red currant one. No one shaped it into an unnatural log shape like the traditional boneless ham. When they first came out with the Kirkland Master Carve Boneless Ham it came as a whole ham that has been carved off the bone. Oh Costco how could you take our glaze away?
