Ingredients

1 (8 to 10-pound) fully cooked smoked ham, bone-in

Freshly ground black pepper

1 bunch fresh sage leaves

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 sticks unsalted butter, cut in pieces

2 tangerines, remove seeds, and slice thinly,

2 cups tangerine juice, squeezed from extra tangerines (I used my electric juicer)

2 cups packed *light brown* sugar

1 cup water

1/4 teaspoon whole cloves

2 cinnamon sticks

1-1/2 pounds carrots, peeled (I omitted the carrots)

Directions

Put ham in large roasting pan, fat-side up

Using a sharp knife, score ham with cuts across skin, about 2-inches apart, 1/2-inch deep

Cut diagonally down the slashes to form a diamond pattern

Season ham with freshly ground pepper

Chop about 8 sage leaves and put in bowl

Mix with olive oil to make paste

Rub sage oil all over ham, getting flavor into all slits

Bake ham for about 2-3 hours at 325 OR 350 degrees (be sure to watch, so that the glaze is not browning too fast)

TANGERINE GLAZE

I made this immediately after I put ham in oven

Place saucepan over medium heat

Add chunks of butter, thinly sliced tangerines, tangerine juice, brown sugar, water, spices

Slowly cook down to syrupy glaze

This should take about 30 to 40 minutes

After ham has been cooking for about 1 hour

You may want to remove ham from oven to pour tangerine glaze (including the pieces of fruit) all over ham

Scatter remaining sage leaves on top of ham

Place ham back in oven, continue to cook , basting with juices every 30 minutes

Ham is done when it is heated through completely and the glaze glistens

*If using carrots, scatter them around ham and coat in tangerine glaze

Cook until the carrots are tender and ham is dark and crisp

Ham should glisten with the sugary glaze

Set ham on cutting board and let rest before carving

If cooking carrots with ham, serve carrots and tangerine glaze on the side, separately

As we all know, ovens are not all the same temperature. For some ovens, cooking the ham at only 300 degrees may be just right. Please be aware of this, so that the ham will not be too dry. :)
