If you’ve got weekend house guests this summer, you may be wondering how to feed all those people. I love to entertain, and I love having guests on our houseboat. A great big ham is a wonderful way to feed them all. It’s simple, and it’s also inexpensive, considering how much you get out of it. Here are a couple of glazes to try on your next ham.

Orange Glaze for Ham

A cup of brown sugar (dark or light – it doesn’t matter)

1 tbsp. of flour

1 tsp. of dry mustard

1 tbsp. of white vinegar

3 tbsp. of orange juice concentrate.

Combine all the above ingredients and stir until smooth. Glaze your baked ham with this mixture about 30 minutes before you take it out of the oven. Return to the oven and finish baking. This will also set the glaze.

Cranberry Sauce for Ham

1 cup of whole berry cranberry sauce (I always use the Kroger brand)

1 tbsp. of grated orange rind

1 tbsp. of prepared horseradish

¼ cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Combine all the above ingredients and spread on the ham before baking.
