Christmas Ham With Raspberry Mustard Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the apple juice, lemon juice and cornstarch; stir until smooth. Stir in half of the jam. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Stir in butter and remaining jam. Cook and stir until the butter is melted. During the last 10 minutes of the ham's baking time, spoon glaze over the entire ham.

Steps:

• For the Ham: Put water in a pot and cover, bring to a boil. Take the foam off the top. Let simmer for 4 hours. Let ham sit in broth over night, covered in refrigerator.
• For the Mustard Mix: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk ingredients well and brush the mix on the ham. Bake the ham for 30 minutes or until the mustard crust is golden brown.

Steps:

• Make the dip: Combine the parsley, sour cream, chives, tarragon, anchovies, lemon juice, garlic, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a blender and puree until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and gently stir in the mayonnaise. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Arrange red and green veggies on a platter. Serve with the dip.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°.
• Purée the berries with their juices in a blender or food processor, and pass the purée through a fine-mesh sieve. You should have about 1 cup purée.
• Stir together the raspberry purée, red currant jelly, and Dijon mustard in a saucepan over medium heat until the jelly dissolves. Boost the heat to high and bring mixture to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and set aside to use as a glaze. You should have just about 3 cups.
• Place the ham, fatty side up, in a roasting pan. Peel off the skin and trim off most of the fat. Score the remaining fat in a diamond pattern. Rub the brown sugar over the surface.
• Roast the ham for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and pour the water over the ham. Spoon 1 cup of the glaze over the ham, and return it to the oven. Bake for 2 1/2 hours longer, basting every 15-20 minutes with the pan juices and adding 1/3 cup of the raspberry glaze in the process until it is all used up.
• Line a large platter with the kale and parsley and place ham on it. Carve at the table.
