How to Make Spiral Sliced Ham Glazed with Cider-Vinegar Caramel

[@andypreston6899]

A great glaze is to use strawberry jam and balsamic vinegar. I can't remember where I got the idea from but it works really well.

[@agold1702]

Why do I always watch this kind of thing late at night after the kitchen closes? :o/ I’m making this on Sunday! Cannot wait!

[@rachel705]

THE kitchen? Are you in college or just really really wealthy lol

[@Stevelemontrudy]

I made this today and it was delicious. I highly recommend. However, I found my times did not match any of the recipe times. I had a 9 lb ham and it only took 2-ish hours to reach 110 degrees. I found it took 2-3 times as long to reduce the syrup, and then 2-3 times longer again to reduce syrup/ vinegar combo to the final 1 1/3 cup. Also, I think the video recipe omits how much vinegar to use in the first place. Another commenter said 1 1/4 C, that seemed legit, so that's what I used. Anyway, my cooking by eye and feel was really tested on this one, but it was really very very tasty.

Will have do our ham this way next holiday season. Elle looks amazing!

[@drcbeartooths]

Exactly what we'll now have for Christmas, thanks!

[@megmayo]

I never thought to carve the ham by going straight down! Can't wait to try it at Christmas! and I'm going to save those extra cooking juices to add to my ham stock. Ham stock makes great Hot & Sour Soup.

[@josondyr.2303]

Right?! I have a Honey-Baked Ham in my fridge that I'm serving for Christmas dinner. I'm going to use this technique.

[@deannamiller512]

Made this today for Easter. It was very good. But it did take my syrup longer to reduce.

[@PageMarker1]

Made a go of it this last Christmas. The ham was hickory smoked pre-cooked & spiral sliced. The glaze wasn't the best, but the quality of the ham more than sufficed. Much ado about glazing.

[@NolaDeb]

GREAT! Thanks! 😋

[@LindaMeeks-n8s]

U didn't say how much vinegar to use want to fix the ham

[@Jupiter0ne]

Did anyone else just learn a new way to slice a spiral ham? At first I thought, "What are you doing slicing straight down like that???" Then I saw how it was plated and thought, well I just learned something new....

[@elostazaelostaza3673]

Very very good

[@carolinewoffard982]

The most beautiful ham I’ve ever seen

[@stevendunn264]

Elle looks great. Hams nice too.

[@dianekerr2905]

How long would the ham be at room temp before bagging and placing in oven? Holiday Ham 101/Cook's Illustrated says room temp for 90 minutes but doesn't suggest any "minutes per pound" information. Elle's 7 lb ham cooked for 4 1/2 hours--that's over 38 minutes per pound. Seems like a long time.

[@lindarichards8700]

I agree no explanation is it because of the bag you think? I love it when they post things and don't come in to check the questions.....NOT!!

[@jimysk8er]

So about that little product placement... Has ATK tested the difference between pyrex and PYREX I've heard that they are completely different in composition and performance but it would be nice to see the real world applications/implications

[@jusssayin480]

What???????

[@tomlompa6598]

Gotta use pineapple juice in the glaze!

[@jerrykong8819]

Do you guys have an alternative to using plastics in your cooking? I'm a bit concerned about micro plastics transferring into the food and also reduce waste.

[@rachel705]

Maybe you could achieve a similar result by wrapping it in moist cheesecloth?

Tightly sealed aluminum foil - like in the good old days!

What about soaking the ham in water to leach out some salt?

[@williamjones7163]

Help! I drooled all over my phone!

[@saltycrow]

Just curious about the corn syrup. After following ATK for years, I know there's science behind your use of that ingredient. I just want to understand what that science is. And could honey work as a substitute. I have nothing against corn syrup, just wondering if honey would do the same thing when I'm not sure what the actual purpose of the corn syrup is? TIA☺

[@miguelcereceres169]

Corn syrup is used to prevent crystallization of sugar. Honey can be used similarly but it’s much sweeter so adjust for sweetness. I always use glucose syrup for the same thing in recipes mostly cause i bought a giant tub a few years ago and cant get rid of it.

[@saltycrow]

@@miguelcereceres169 Thanks so much for explaining that. Makes sense now.☺

[@miguelcereceres169]

@@XCodes Maybe what i meant to say was that honey can impart more flavors than you may want for the recipe. Corn syrup is more neutral in taste.

[@tajr.2650]

I was thinking about adding maple syrup instead. Gonna do a bit more research.

[@lindarichards8700]

It looks delish but 250 a seven pound ham 3 to 4 hours seems a bit much...IMOH. is it because of the bag?

[@cglow8783]

What can you use in place of the corn syrup?

[@kappadappa]

Glucose syrup. Or simply leave it out but the caramel will have more risk of crystallizing.

[@cglow8783]

@@kappadappa glucose syrup? Would maple syrup work? Real maple not the fake stuff.

[@rachel705]

@@cglow8783 Honey would be better IMO but will have a stronger flavor than the corn syrup so you’ll have to adjust the amount. I guess you could use maple syrup if you’re going for a maple bacon type thing but again stronger flavor.

Can you use a fully cooked spiral ham for this recipe?

Heating it to 110 degrees means it is already cooked. You are merely reheating it.

[@charlieharris3240]

Ham is fully cooked, you can eat it straight out of its wrapping without warming it if you want. But if you do want it warmed up, it will still take a while if it's a big piece of meat like the ham here.

[@junefish1957]

Instructions for oven bag use mandate flour in bag bottom and slits cut in sides. I didn't see either of these in the video and they are not part of the recipe Instructions. Would you please confirm that these are not necessary for this recipe?

Enjoying sweet things is not a uniquely American thing… French and Italian people love a good pastry for breakfast, and sweetened eggs are pretty much a given in Japanese breakfasts. Sugar is not just for dessert.

Ok, now I know why half of US has diabetes. So much sugar for a piece of ham.

[@farah6709]

That’s at least 8 servings and most of the glaze is on the side. Let’s work together on this one

[@spildb]

@@farah6709 So, let's do the math. 1.5 cups of sugar is ~300g and 1 cup of that corn stuff is ~200g. That's 500g of ~sugar. Divide by 8 gets you 62.5g per serving (around 15 teaspoons). On a piece of meat! That you might also serve with mashed potatoes or some other carb. So diabetes.

[@mplake6909]

You act like people eat this every single day. Once or twice a year will not give you diabetes.

[@tammyclark4618]

Well if you're going to do the math, at least use the right measurements. It was one and a quarter cup of sugar and only three tablespoons of corn syrup, not a full cup. Sheesh. 🤦

[@mockturtle1402]

@@tammyclark4618 So then it's "only" 42g of sugar per serving. That is way over what most authorities suggest. It comes to around 25% of total calories, and the USDA recommends 10%. And with dessert and drinks, it's going to be much much higher. And you are already way over the 30g that most authorities recommend per day, in just the "protein" part of one meal.
