Quick! Does anyone have the instructions for Appleton Ham Glaze?!


Question: So, this is my first Easter making a ham and stupid stupid me threw the directions away in the trash. I'd go dig them out, but it's already been taken out to the dumpster. I bought an Appleton Ham that came w/ the ham glaze, which is in a powder form and I don't know how to make it like the actual glaze! If anyone could help at all that would be great. I really don't want to look stupid in front of my husband's family. Thanks so much for any help!

We're kindred spirits--I just did exactly the same thing! My husband just added water, a few tablespoons at a time, until the powder dissolved, thewn spread it on the ham. I do remember that you're supposed to remove the ham from the oven 1/2 hour before the cooking time is done, glaze it, then return it uncovered to the oven for the final 30 minutes. Good luck!

as a pro chef i can honestly tell you to just add water to glaze packet, but even better woul be to make your own glaze, use equal parts honey and american or dijon mustard. or use equal parts molasses and dijon or american or whole grain mustard, good luck

Here are some glazes i have used over the years to glaze my hams.............


Regardless of the type of glaze you settle on, it should be applied to the ham's surface approximately 30 minutes before the meat is taken out of the oven. Adding it too early can burn the ham. Here are some ham glaze variations:

Mix equal amounts of powdered mustard and brown sugar. Sprinkle on ham in final 30 minutes of cooking.

Mix equal amounts of brown sugar and honey. Brush sugar and honey mixture over ham in final 30 minutes of cooking.

Mix 1 cup of raspberry preserves with 1/2 cup of light corn syrup. Brush on ham in final 30 minutes of cooking.

Combine 1/4 cup of pineapple juice with 1/4 of honey and 1/4 of brown sugar. Coat the ham with the pineapple-honey mixture in the final 30 minutes of cooking.
