I have a half Christmas ham and I'm not sure if I'm supposed to glaze only the top(fat) or if I'm supposed to cover the sides as well.

Thanks for the help but I burnt it πŸ₯²

At least it still tastes ok

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Fuck I set the bread rolls on fire in the oven. Hopefully having a fire inside the oven doesn't damage anything. This is going tits up.

Where the hell are all your timers my guy?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 10 months ago

I had a 15min timer that was reminding me to glaze the ham. But when the ham was done I got distracted and forgot about the rolls.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The taste is the main thing! What temp did you bake it at?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

170c but I forgot what time I put it in. I was aiming for 1:30 cooking time.

Gotcha. Happens sometimes. That's about what temp I cook mine at. I just check it occasionally to see if the glaze has crusted up.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah that's why I brought the ham after Christmas. I wanted to practice cooking one. I think I've learnt enough to nail it next time.

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Very good thinking!

[–] MrQuallzin@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

I say there's no such thing as too much glaze

Cover the entire surface. (also, yes, score the entire surface).

Personally, I like to take a slightly thinner glaze and massaging it into the scoring more than just leaving it on top.

also, if you're looking for honey "baked"....
