Honey-glazed ham
Sweet and smoky, with a sticky, caramelized exterior over salty ham.
Lens analyzedHoney-glazed ham is fully cooked ham coated in a sweet, sticky glaze made from honey, sugar, and spices, usually scored in a diamond pattern before baking or serving. It's sold whole, half, or spiral-sliced, with the spiral cut making it easy to serve without carving at the table.
Where it comes from
Glazing ham with sugar or honey to caramelize the exterior is a technique that became especially associated with North American holiday tables, where a whole glazed ham is a common centerpiece for Christmas or Easter dinner. Spiral-sliced versions became popular once specialty meat companies developed machines to cut the ham without slicing all the way through.
Buying it
Check whether the ham is fully cooked and ready to reheat versus needing to be cooked from raw, since labeling varies by brand. A spiral-sliced ham makes serving easier if you don't want to carve it yourself.
Storing it
Keep honey-glazed ham refrigerated and use within about a week; slice off only what you need and reseal the rest tightly to keep it from drying out.
Keeps about 7 days in the fridge.
