Recipe - The Best Ham Glaze In The World

1 cup Dark Karo syrup
One half cup Brown sugar; packed
3 tablespoon Prepared yellow mustard
One half teaspoon Ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon Ground cloves

Combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 5
minutes, stirring constantly. Let cool.

Brush on ham frequently during the last 30 minutes of baking.

My personal notes say... I copied this recipe from a cookbook borrowed from
Home Ec. department at school, but neglected to write down the name. Shame
on me. I've used this with pork tenderloin. It makes a lot for a small
buffet ham, but is just right for a larger one. It keeps a long time in the
fridge.

I'm using this Christmas for my ham. In addition, we're having fried
oysters and baked turkey. With all that, I should not have to cook for at
least a week.....
