Whole recipe (16 servings): 6160 kcal
- about 1 inch of water
- a ham (type not specified, but cooked at 325°F for 20 minutes before glazing)
- a bunch of brown sugar
- honey
- Dijon mustard
- rice vinegar
- cayenne pepper
- black pepper
- Worcestershire sauce
Method
10 steps- Set up a roasting pan with a rack, add a couple of whole star anise and a bunch of whole cloves, pour in about an inch of water, and place the ham on the rack.
- Pat the outside of the ham dry with paper towels if wet or slimy.
- Score the ham with a sharp knife, making cuts about 1/2 inch apart and 1/4 inch deep all over the surface, both across and up and down.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F and bake the ham for 20 minutes.
- Make the glaze by mixing brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, rice vinegar, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce until thick and brushable.
- Remove the ham from the oven, brush with the glaze, and return to the oven for another 20 minutes.
- Repeat glazing every 20 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 130°F, approximately 18 minutes per pound.
- During the final glazing, drip some of the flavored water from underneath onto the ham to enhance flavor.
- Once the ham reaches 130°F, use a blowtorch to caramelize the surface for a crispy, crackling finish, moving the torch evenly over the surface.
- Transfer the ham to a serving platter, place on a bed of kale, and garnish with small apples or similar decorative fruit.
