Tomorrow we are having a ham dinner. It is one of my favorite meals. I am really looking forward to it. I glaze my ham with a mustard and brown sugar glaze. There are so many different glazes. Some use 7up, apricot jelly, sweet chili, maple syrup, etc. I like to add pineapples. I know others like to use cherries, cloves, etc.
What do you glaze your ham with?

I don’t glaze a ham because I don’t do the cooking my mom does and not sure what she uses. I know some use the glaze packet that comes with the ham

we don't' glaze or add anything to it. Just have the ham, with potatoes cooked in the pan too.

I've used the mustard and brown sugar glaze too, and I like to add pineapple rings. I think tomorrow I'm using the packet of glaze that came with the ham.

@Happy2BeMe I think this one is a honey-mustard-clove based one.

@Happy2BeMe I use the juice from the pineapple and add a bit of corn starch for thickening. Just a simple recipe. Adding more to it takes away from the tangy taste of the pineapple. :-)

We eat it plain, no glaze. Makes it easier to use the left overs. I'll usually put the leftovers in some augratin potatoes.. and any sort of glaze would make that taste kinda weird!

That is a good way to do it when you are using leftovers for other things.

Years ago when I did make ham for Easter I made a mix of some not too hot mustard and honey.
