It’s Ham Season!

Peach and Mustard Glazed Ham Ingredients 500g peaches, diced zest and juice of 2 limes 2 star anise 125ml (4.2 fl oz) water 145g (⅔ cup) brown sugar sea salt and white pepper, to season 2 tsp dijon mustard 15ml sherry vinegar 1 whole leg ham, cooked Method Step 1: Prep the glaze Place the peaches, lime zest and juice, star anise and water in a large saucepan. Place over a medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, until peaches have softened and the liquid has reduced by half. Add the sugar and season with some salt and white pepper. Bring back to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes, stirring often, until thickened and sticky. Stir in the dijon and sherry vinegar, then cook for a few more minutes. Transfer to a blender and process until smooth. Step 2: Score the ham Make a slit through the skin about 10cm from the top of the ham knuckle, then carefully peel the skin back and remove. Mark out a criss cross pattern on top of the ham using a long piece of butcher's twine. Use a sharp knife to cut this pattern into the fat layer, making sure you don’t cut into the flesh underneath. Step 3: Smoke the ham Preheat a smoker or oven to 140°C (285°F). Place the ham on a large roasting tray and cook for 30 minutes. Brush a thin layer of glaze over the ham, then cook for 15 minutes. Continue glazing every 15 minutes for approximately 2 - 2½ hours, until the glaze is caramelised and reaches an internal temperature of 50°C (122°F). Transfer the ham to a large platter and carve into thin slices to serve
