Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs (about 700g) ham, pre-cooked
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon pickling spice
- 2 tablespoons onion juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, lemon juice, pickling spice, and onion juice. Mix well to create the glaze.
- Place the ham in a roasting pan and score the surface in a crisscross pattern, which allows the glaze to penetrate the meat.
- Brush half of the glaze mixture over the ham, ensuring it gets into the scored cuts.
- Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.
- Remove the foil and brush the remaining glaze over the ham. Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
- Bake for an additional 20-30 minutes, basting the ham every 10 minutes, until caramelized and heated through.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
