Baked Ham With Rhubarb In Balsamic Vinegar Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Place ham, fat side up, on rack in shallow roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of ham and does not touch bone or rest in fat. Cover loosely and bake 1 hour 15 minutes to 2 hours 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 135°F (13 to 17 minutes per pound).
• About 20 minutes before ham is done, remove from oven. Pour drippings from pan. Remove any skin from ham. Mix brown sugar, vinegar and mustard; pat or brush on ham. Bake uncovered 20 minutes longer.
• Cover ham loosely and let stand about 10 minutes or until thermometer reads 140°F. Garnish with orange slices and cherries.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place ham in a roasting pan, and press whole cloves into the top at 1 to 2 inch intervals. Pack the top with a layer of brown sugar. Pour enough water into the bottom of the roasting pan to come to a 1 inch depth. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil or a lid.
• Bake for 4 1/2 to 5 hours in the preheated oven (about 22 minutes per pound), or until the internal temperature of the ham has reached 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Make sure the meat thermometer is not touching the bone. Let stand for about 20 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Place chopped rhubarb in a medium-sized saucepan. Add sugar, balsamic vinegar, and salt; stir to coat rhubarb evenly. Let sit for 10 minutes until rhubarb has released its juices.
• Bring rhubarb mixture to a light boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is soft and mixture has thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Mixture will further thicken upon cooling. Place in a jar or storage container and refrigerate for up to a week.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the butter in a large ovenproof pot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the brown sugar and vinegar and and cook until the sugar melts. Place the ham in the center of the pot. Scatter the rhubarb around the ham, stirring to coat it with the sauce. Place the potatoes around the ham and cover the top with foil. Bake until the ham is heated through and the potatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
• Carefully remove the ham and potatoes from the pot. With a slotted spoon, transfer the rhubarb to a bowl. Place the pot over medium-high heat and cook until the liquid has reduced to 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Stir the sauce into the rhubarb. Slice enough ham to serve 4 and divide among 4 plates. Place 2 potatoes on each plate and spoon the rhubarb mixture over the ham. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a saucepan simmer vinegar with sugar and gingerroot, stirring, until sugar is dissolved and stir in rhubarb (with reserved liquid if using frozen). If using fresh rhubarb, simmer until crisp-tender, about 1 minute, and transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl. If using frozen, as soon as mixture returns to a simmer transfer rhubarb with slotted spoon to bowl. Simmer liquid until thickened slightly, about 5 minutes, and remove pan from heat. Stir in rhubarb. Serve compote warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Put ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
• Add water and cover with foil.
• Roast at 325 degrees until meat thermometer registers 135 degrees.
• In the meantime combine remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium and cook, uncovered, about 15 minutes; stir occasionally.
• Remove cinnamon stick.
• The last 15 minutes of baking time, remove foil from ham and spoon small amount of sauce over the ham (return to oven for remaining time).
• Remove and allow ham to stand, covered, about 10 minutes.
• Serve remaining sauce with ham.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spread rhubarb, onion, and garlic on a baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until tender, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer roasted rhubarb, onion, and garlic to a blender; puree until very smooth.
• Pour rhubarb puree into a large pot. Stir in beer, brown sugar, ketchup, balsamic vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, liquid smoke, salt, cinnamon, and cayenne. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves and flavors combine, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Using a sharp knife, score entire surface of ham in a diamond pattern, cutting down just through the skin to the flesh underneath. (If you are cutting to the right depth, the skin will spread apart a bit as you cut.) Rub outside of ham all over with salt and pepper, pressing it into crosshatch spaces between the skin. Put roast on a rack in a large roasting pan and place in oven.
• After 20 minutes, reduce oven to 300 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, balsamic vinegar and cinnamon. Baste ham hourly with mixture, as well as with fat from the bottom of the pan, roasting until the very center of the ham reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2 1/2 to 3 hours total cooking time. (Begin checking at 2 hours, inserting a meat thermometer into the absolute center of the roast.)
• Put the toasted pecans and candied ginger into a food processor and pulse lightly until crumbled and well combined.
• When ham is done, remove it from roasting pan, shower with pecan-ginger mixture and cover it loosely with foil. Allow the meat to rest for 20 to 30 minutes. (Its internal temperature will rise to 150 or more as it rests.)
• Tip roasting pan to the side so you can spoon off all the fat from the pan juices, then place pan on stove over medium-high heat. Scrape the bottom of pan to free any browned bits, skim any film off surface and season liquid as needed with salt and pepper. Pour into a gravy boat.
• Carve ham into thick slices, drizzle with pan sauce and serve, passing remaining sauce on the side.
