    A great glaze is to use strawberry jam and balsamic vinegar. I can't remember where I got the idea from but it works really well.

    I made this today and it was delicious. I highly recommend. However, I found my times did not match any of the recipe times. I had a 9 lb ham and it only took 2-ish hours to reach 110 degrees. I found it took 2-3 times as long to reduce the syrup, and then 2-3 times longer again to reduce syrup/ vinegar combo to the final 1 1/3 cup. Also, I think the video recipe omits how much vinegar to use in the first place. Another commenter said 1 1/4 C, that seemed legit, so that's what I used. Anyway, my cooking by eye and feel was really tested on this one, but it was really very very tasty.

    How long would the ham be at room temp before bagging and placing in oven? Holiday Ham 101/Cook's Illustrated says room temp for 90 minutes but doesn't suggest any "minutes per pound" information. Elle's 7 lb ham cooked for 4 1/2 hours--that's over 38 minutes per pound. Seems like a long time.

    Just curious about the corn syrup. After following ATK for years, I know there's science behind your use of that ingredient. I just want to understand what that science is. And could honey work as a substitute. I have nothing against corn syrup, just wondering if honey would do the same thing when I'm not sure what the actual purpose of the corn syrup is? TIA☺

    Corn syrup is used to prevent crystallization of sugar. Honey can be used similarly but it’s much sweeter so adjust for sweetness. I always use glucose syrup for the same thing in recipes mostly cause i bought a giant tub a few years ago and cant get rid of it.
