Servings: 12

Preparation duration: -1 minutes

Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon Chinese five-spice powder

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup brown sugar

3 tablespoons butter

1 5-pound good quality cooked ham

2 medium onions, chopped

4 tablespoons Chopped pecans, chopped medium fine

Equipment:

oven

roasting pan

bowl

sauce pan

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350. In a small bowl, mix the pecans, sugar, and five-spice powder with the butter until you have a fine, crumbly mixture. Rub generously over the ham, patting the crust with your hands.
  2. Scatter the onions in the bottom of a heavy roasting pan and add about 2 cups water. Place the ham on the bed of onions. Slide the pan into the oven and roast for about 2 hours, checking to make sure theres still liquid in the pan. As the water evaporates, add a bit more. The ham is done when a nice glaze forms on the outside.
  3. The pecan mixture and the water in the pan will create their own sauce to pour over the ham after youve sliced it into beautiful pink rounds. If the sauce seems too thin, just pour into a saucepan and reduce it.

Food Trivia

The earliest form of eating processed food occurred in early hunting cultures when the men who made a kill would be rewarded with a meal of the partially digested contents of the stomach of their prey.
