 "description": "A fully cooked bone-in ham baked under a brown sugar, mustard and clove glaze, sliced thin and served in a modest 2¾ oz portion; about 640 mg sodium a serving, because the cure carries most of it.",
 "recipeYield": "12 servings",
 "totalTime": "PT1H45M",
 "recipeCategory": "Dinner",
 "recipeIngredient": [
  "4 lb fully cooked, bone-in, spiral-sliced shank-half ham with natural juices",
  "⅓ cup (73 g) packed brown sugar",
  "2 tsp (4 g) ground mustard seed",
  "2 tbsp (30 g) apple cider vinegar",
  "¼ tsp ground cloves",
  "½ cup water, for the pan"

   "text": "Check the label: this recipe is for a ham marked fully cooked, bone-in, shank half. Pick the one labelled with natural juices, not water added, and compare labels: sodium runs from about 800 to over 1,100 mg per 100 g between brands. Take it out of the fridge 1 hour before baking. Heat the oven to 325 °F with a rack in the lower third."

   "text": "Rest the ham 15 minutes. Cut away the rind, the outer fat and the bone; none of that is eaten. Slice the lean thin and weigh out 12 portions of about 2¾ oz (78 g) each, 3 to 4 slices. The slices left over are not part of these servings. The pan juices are not served: they carry the cure, and the 642 mg a serving counts the meat only."
