Spiral Ham with Red Wine and Citrus Glaze
Recipe courtesy of Rebecca Gallop (@adailysomething) on behalf of ALDI
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10-12 minutes per pound of ham
Ham:
1 Appleton Farms Spiral Cut Double Glazed Brown Sugar Ham (about 4 pounds), reserving liquid
Glaze:
1/2 cup Intermingle Red Blend wine
1/4 cup Nature’s Nectar orange juice
1/4 cup Specially Selected 100% Pure Maple Syrup
1/2 cup Simply Nature Organic Light Brown Sugar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 dash salt
2 tablespoons Burman’s Dijon Mustard
To make ham: Heat oven to 325 F. Place ham in roasting pan on rack. Pour reserved liquid over ham and cover tightly with foil. Bake 10-12 minutes per pound.
To make glaze: In small pan, combine wine, orange juice, syrup, brown sugar, rosemary and salt. Heat to boil then lower to rapid simmer until mixture begins to thicken and reduce, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and whisk in mustard.
When ham is 10 minutes from being done, remove from oven and increase temperature to 400 F. Remove foil and brush ham thoroughly with glaze.
Place ham back in oven, uncovered, about 10 minutes, or until ham reaches internal temperature of 140 F.
Remove ham from oven and let sit 10 minutes. Slice and serve.
