Glazed Ham with Maple Rum Sauce
Ingredients:
-
5 lb (2 1/2 kg) ham
-
1/3 cup (75 mL) maple syrup
-
1/4 cup (50 mL) amber rum
-
1/2 cup (125 mL) beef broth
-
2 tsp (10 mL) Dijon mustard
Preparation:
Roast ham at 325°F (160°C) uncovered, about 15 minutes per lb/0.5 kg.
Meanwhile, combine maple syrup and rum. After 45 minutes, brush ham with maple mixture frequently, until ham is done. Remove to a platter and keep warm.
Skim any fat from pan juices -- add remaining glaze, beef broth and mustard. Stir to scrape up browned bits. Bring to a boil -- reduce heat and simmer, adding water if necessary. Slice ham. Serve with maple rum sauce.
