Ginger-Rum-Glazed Ham
Gourmet Archives
One 7 to 8 pound
half (shank end) of a
fully cooked cured ham
1/3 cup chopped
preserved ginger in syrup
3 tablespoons
firmly packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons dark
rum
Parsley sprigs for
garnish if desired
If the ham comes
with the skin still attached, remove most of it with a
sharp knife, leaving
a layer of fat and a collar of skin around the shank
bone. Trim the fat,
leaving a layer about 1/3-inch thick, and score the
layer remaining into
diamonds. Bake the ham on a rack in a roasting
pan in a preheated 350-degree F.
degree oven for 55 minutes.
In a blender blend
together the ginger, brown sugar, and rum, spoon the
glaze over the
ham, spreading it, and bake the ham for 30 to 35 minutes
more, or until the
glaze is brown and bubbly.
Transfer the ham to a platter, garnish the
platter with the parsley, and
let the ham stand for 15 minutes before
carving. Serves 8.
