Honey glazed ham is a classic dish that often graces the table during festive occasions and family gatherings. Its origins can be traced back to the tradition of preserving meat with sugar and honey, a method that dates back centuries. The sweet glaze complements the savory, smoky flavor of the ham, creating a delightful balance that makes it a favorite for many. This dish is perfect for those who want to impress their guests with minimal effort, as the oven does most of the work. Plus, the leftovers can be used in a variety of ways, making it a versatile choice for any cook.
Honey glazed ham pairs beautifully with a variety of sides. Consider serving it with creamy mashed potatoes or a light, tangy coleslaw to balance the sweetness of the glaze. Roasted vegetables, such as Brussels sprouts or carrots, add a lovely depth of flavor and color to your plate. For a touch of freshness, a simple green salad with a vinaigrette dressing can be a perfect accompaniment. And don’t forget a warm, crusty bread to soak up any extra glaze!
