Honey Glazed Ham

This was the receipe for Honey Glazed Ham that is a combination of my mothers receipe and my own little twist added. It's very yummy and not overly sweet. The cooking process allows the juices to really sink into the meat and make it super flavorful.

Ingredients For Glaze:

1 C      Brown Sugar
1 C         Honey
2 tsp.      Cornstarch
1/4 tsp    Cayenne Pepper
1 tsp       Vanilla Extract

Ingredients For Ham:
Handful of Peppercorn to Varnish
Ham


Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. While it's heating combine all ingredients for glaze into a sauce pan and heat over medium heat until soupy and thin while stirring constantly. Take Ham and using a carving knife make shallow cuts diagonally across ham in both directions creating a series of diamond shaped patterns across the ham's surface. Take the peppercorns and place them in the points of the diamonds. Cook ham for 1 hour in the oven. Next take the ham out of the oven and take the glaze you've created and pour half evenly over the Ham. Make sure it's evenly coated on there. Then continue to bake 15 minutes. Take ham out again and repeat the glazing using the rest of the glaze then bake a final 20 minutes. Once it is completely done baking take ham and cut. The glaze should be baked on there but any additional glaze will run into the meat and cool on the individual slices.
