Vintage Home: Easter Ham

Here is the perfect ham recipe for Easter!

• 
  1 (5 pound) ready-to-eat ham

• 1/4 cup whole cloves

• 1/4 cup dark corn syrup

• 2 cups honey

• 2/3 cup butter

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2. Score ham, and stud with the whole cloves. Place ham in foil lined pan.
3. In the top half of a double boiler, heat the corn syrup, honey and butter. Keep glaze warm while baking ham.
4. Brush glaze over ham, and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Baste ham every 10 to 15 minutes with the honey glaze. During the last 4 to 5 minutes of baking, turn on broiler to caramelize the glaze. Remove from oven, and let sit a few minutes before serving.
