How to Make Pineapple Glaze For Baked Ham
- In a small saucepan, combine the pineapple juice/syrup (1 cup), brown sugar (1/2 cup), Dijon mustard (1 tablespoon), and ground cloves (1/4 teaspoon).
- Whisk in cornstarch (2 tablespoons) and ensure no lumps remain.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken and comes to a gentle boil. This should take around 2-3 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, or until the glaze reaches your desired consistency. If the glaze is too thin, whisk in more cornstarch (1/2 teaspoon at a time) until thickened.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. For an extra touch, stir in 1/4 cup of chopped fresh pineapple chunks.
- Serve the glaze in a separate bowl alongside your sliced baked ham, allowing guests to customize their portions.
