      Title: Analiese Gregory's Whiskey-Glazed Ham w/Preserved Cherrie
 Categories: Pork, Fruits, Herbs, Booze, Vegetables
      Yield: 11 servings
 
      6 kg Leg ham; bone in
  1 1/2 tb Wholegrain mustard
    100 g  Brown sugar
     80    Cloves

MMMMM---------------------PRESERVED CHERRIES--------------------------
      1 kg Pitted black cherries
    150 g  Caster sugar
    130 ml Sherry vinegar
      3    Golden shallots; fine
           - chopped
     20 g  Ginger; peeled, fine
           - chopped
      1 ts Mixed spice

MMMMM-----------------------WHISKEY GLAZE----------------------------
    200 g  Maraschino cherries & syrup,
           - stems removed
    200 g  Black cherry or sour cherry
           - jam
    200 ml Cherry juice
    200 ml Homemade pork stock
    100 ml Bourbon
    100 g  Brown sugar
 
  For preserved cherries, simmer ingredients in a saucepan
  over low heat until cherries start to break down and
  have a jam-like consistency (1-1¼ hours). Season lightly
  with salt and pepper and set aside to cool.
  
  For whiskey glaze, blend or finely chop the cherries and
  combine with remaining ingredients in a saucepan and
  simmer over high heat until thickened and glossy (10-15
  minutes).
  
  Set oven @ 180°C/360°F.
  
  Gently peel back the ham skin from leg to shank, being
  careful not to tear the fat. Score the skin around shank
  with a sharp knife, then remove skin. Score fat 5mm deep
  to create a diamond pattern. Rub ham all over with
  mustard, then brown sugar and stud the centre of each
  diamond with a clove. Place ham in a roasting pan with
  80ml water in the base to prevent burning and roast for
  30 minutes.
  
  Reduce oven to 160°C/325°F and keep baking, basting ham
  every 15 minutes with whiskey glaze, until dark and
  glossy (about 2 hours; if the tray dries out, add a
  little more water so the sugars don't burn).
  
  Serve the ham with the cherry preserve.
  
  Serves 10 - 12
