Glazed ham is a dish made from a whole or half ham that has been cooked and then coated with a sweet glaze. The glaze is typically made from a combination of ingredients such as brown sugar, honey, mustard, and spices. The ham is often baked or roasted until the glaze caramelizes and forms a sticky, flavorful coating on the outside of the meat. Glazed ham is a popular dish for holidays and special occasions, and is often served as a main course with side dishes such as mashed potatoes, green beans, and dinner rolls.
