Maple Mustard Glaze for Ham

Submitted by Kree

"I got this off the DIY website. I haven't tried it yet, but I have used the glaze on chicken, and it's delicious! I'm sure this is equally as good. The original recipe calls for 2 Tbsp. tarragon. I reduced it because that seems like a lot to me, but if you like lots of herbs feel free to use that much!"

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 3
• Yields: 9 Tbsp. glaze

ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup maple syrup

3. Add the glaze during the last 30 minutes.
4. You can also add the ham dripping (extended with chicken stock if necessary) to the remainder of the glaze in a sauce pan and bring to a boil for a great sauce!

I made this to put on ham slices - Yummy! It was just the right amount of sweet & sour.

We enjoyed this very much on our (fully cooked boneless smoked) Christmas Ham! It was so easy and tasty! I used 2 t. dried tarragon because I didn't have fresh, and I microwaved it for a minute first to cook the tarragon flavor in, I was worried that the dried tarragon would have no flavor, but you could taste it and it was GOOD! Thanks for such a simple and tasty recipe!

Kree, if you still have not tried this recipe, do! This is the perfect combination of maple & mustard with just a hint of tarragon for a baked ham to show it off in style! The glaze was beautiful and the flavor divine! I baked my ham at 325° for 1 1/2 hours and put on the glaze the last 30 minutes for perfect results! Thanks for sharing, Kree!
