INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 Farmer John ® Spiral Sliced Ham, bone cover removed
  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 4 sprigs thyme
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 3/4 cup Riesling
  • 1 14 oz can diced peaches in syrup
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup stone ground dijon mustard

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a 2-quart saucepan on medium heat, heat oil and sauté onions, thyme, rosemary, smoked paprika, salt and black pepper until onions are translucent.
  2. Turn heat up to medium heat and add Riesling. Bring to a boil. Lower heat to medium low and simmer until volume is reduced to half, about 15 minutes.
  3. Add peaches and sugar. Bring heat back up to medium and boil, stirring often until thickened, about 20 minutes.
  4. Remove herbs and pour through mesh sieve, gently stirring to push some solids through. Whisk in mustard. Cool slightly.
  5. Preheat oven to 325F.
  6. In a roasting dish fitted with a rack, pour 3 cups water into the bottom of roasting dish.
  7. Place ham on top of rack. Brush a layer of glaze over hams and tent with foil for 30 minutes.
  8. Remove foil and brush another layer of glaze. Continue to brush glaze every 30 minutes for 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours, until ham reaches internal temperature of 160F.
  9. Rest ham for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
COOKING TIP
