Kings offers this menu for classic baked ham with mango Dijon glaze for Easter:

Ingredients:

  • 1 bone-in or boneless smoked ham
  • 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 2 cups mango juice
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup organic 100% pure honey
  • 1/4 cup drippings from ham
  • 1 tsp. grated orange peel

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Bake whole ham according to directions in your recipe. About 45 minutes before the ham is done, remove it from the oven.

Remove the drippings from the pan. Score the fat diagonally using a sharp knife, about a half-inch deep.

In a separate saucepan, stir together the mango juice, mustard, brown sugar, honey, ham drippings and orange peel to make a glaze. Simmer for 30 minutes.

Pour 1/3 of the glaze over the ham. Return glazed ham back to oven. Bake for another 30-40 minutes, basting the ham every 10 minutes with the remaining glaze.
