Great recipe! I like that you added the marmalade with mustard. Some people make hams that are way too sweet!
This looks absolutely droolworthy!
Gorgeous!
I’ll have to try that glaze on seitan or tempeh sometime!
What a show stopper! Love Christmas ham — the marmalade glaze looks divine! Merry Christmas!

One of my all time favorites, it looks delicious. Merry Christmas.
This sounds utterly delicious! I love a well cooked and glazed ham.
Can’t find this here. Would be great served at one’s Christmas lunch or dinner alongside one roast turkey and a rack of lamb.
