Method
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Place the Kurobuta ham in a roasting pan, cut side down.
- In a small saucepan, combine brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, and ground cinnamon. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens.
- Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern about 1 inch apart.
- Using a basting brush, generously apply the glaze over the scored ham.
- Cover the ham loosely with aluminum foil. Bake for about 1.5 hours, basting every 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil for the last 30 minutes of baking.
- Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C).
- Let the ham rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
