This week's Resolution Recipe: Honey Glaze.

1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup honey (I used about 1/3 cup)

Mix all together. Half an hour before the ham is done, crank up the oven to 400 and baste the ham with the glaze every 8 minutes for half an hour or so, until the internal temperature is 165.

What worked: Yup, honey-glazed ham. The ham from Boccalone was faboo.

What didn't: A bit much for a 4 lb ham - I could have halved the recipe. It stayed sticky rather than developing that commercial crystalized sugar crust. Probably because there aren't any additives.

Will I make it again? Not until the next holiday ham.
