Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup water, or as needed
  • 12 whole cloves, or more to taste
  • 1 country-style ham
  • 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Step 2

Pour water, star anise, and cloves into the bottom of a roasting pan. Place a roasting rack into the pan over the water, anise, and cloves; place ham on rack. Cut 1/4-inch deep slashes 1/2-inch apart lengthwise and crosswise across the top of the entire ham.

Step 3

Bake ham in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Whisk brown sugar, honey,  mustard, vinegar, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until glaze has a thick, smooth consistency.

Step 4

Brush glaze all over ham. Continue baking ham, brushing glaze on every 20 minutes, until glaze is deep golden and ham is heated through, about 2 hours 10 minutes. Ad instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F.

Step 5

Use a kitchen torch to heat the glaze on the ham until it is crispy and caramelized, 2 to 5 minutes.
