Ingredients
1/2 cup clover or orange-blossom honey
1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest, plus 2 tablespoons fresh juice
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
Freshly ground pepper
1 smoked bone-in spiral half ham (about 8 pounds; we love D'Artagnan Berkshire Pork's for a special occasion)
Preparation
Preheat oven to 325°F with a rack in lower third. Stir together honey, orange zest and juice, ginger, cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Wrap ham, fat-cap-side up, tightly in parchment-lined foil. Place on a rimmed baking sheet or in a small roasting pan.
Bake 1 hour. Unwrap, leaving foil under ham to catch juices. Brush with some of the glaze; continue baking, uncovered, basting with more glaze every 15 minutes, until heated through, 45 minutes to 1 hour more. Brush with remaining glaze; let cool slightly. Serve warm.
