6. lépés: A sonka mázzal való bevonása és süsd meg
Kend meg a sonkát a máz felével. Lazán fedd le alufóliával, hogy ne barnuljon túl. Tedd be a sütőbe, és süsd meg, 20-30 percenként meglocsolva.
7. lépés: Ananászszeletek hozzáadása
About 45 minutes before the ham is finished, arrange pineapple rings on the ham, securing them with toothpicks if needed. Optionally, place a maraschino cherry in the center of each ring. Brush with glaze.
Step 8: Finish Roasting
Continue roasting until the ham reaches an internal temperature of 140°F (60°C). Remove foil for the last 20 minutes to allow caramelization.
Step 9: Rest and Serve
Once fully cooked, let the ham rest for 15–20 minutes before carving. Garnish with rosemary sprigs and serve as the star of your Christmas dinner.
Helpful Tips for the Best Christmas Glazed Ham
-
Choose the Right Ham: A bone-in ham has more flavor and makes for a beautiful centerpiece.
-
Don’t Overcook: Since most hams are precooked, you’re only reheating. Overcooking will make it dry.
-
Use Foil Wisely: Covering with foil keeps the ham moist, but remove it near the end for that irresistible golden glaze.
-
Make Extra Glaze: Reserve some glaze to serve as a sauce on the side.
-
Leftovers are Gold: Use leftover ham in Green Bean Casserole, sandwiches, soups, or breakfast omelets.
