The story behind it

We made this for the first time on Easter 2022 with friends. Everyone loved it!

From the kitchen of Rachel White

Honey Orange Dijon Ham

Ingredients

  • 1 whole ham (not spiraled)

Glaze

  • 1 cup orange marmalade

  • 1¼ cup chicken stock, unsalted

Later

  • more chicken stock as needed

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 300° on the convection setting.
  2. Cut off all the skin. Score along the outside with cuts 1 inch apart. Set in pan.
  3. Whisk together the glaze and pour over the ham. Loosely cover with foil and bake in the oven 3 hours.
  4. Uncover after 3 hours, turn the oven to 225° and turn off convection.

Letters from the porch

Pull up a chair.

Every so often I’ll write you a letter. A recipe, a tradition we’re trying, whatever magic (or glorious mess) happened at our table that week. No lectures, nothing salesy, just a friend waving from the porch.
