Spiral Ham with Cranberry Glaze

SERVINGS: 12-16
CATEGORY: Main Dish
METHOD: Baked
PREP: 15 min.
COOK: 180 min.
TOTAL: 195 min.

1 fully cooked spiral-sliced ham (8 pounds)
1 can (16 ounces) whole-berry cranberry sauce
1 package (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries
1 jar (12 ounces) red currant jelly
1 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Place ham on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Cover and bake at 325° for 2-1/2 hours. Meanwhile, for glaze, combine the remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until cranberries pop, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat; set aside.

Uncover ham; bake 30 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 140°, basting twice with 1-1/2 cups glaze. Serve remaining glaze with ham. Yield: 12-16 servings.
