Preparation:

Bake ham as directed by packer. About 30 minutes before ham is done, remove it from oven. If your ham has a rind, when it is cool enough to handle, cut away the rind and trim the fat about 1/2 in. thick. Score by cutting deeply in a crisscross pattern. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees. With a pastry brush, paint the ham all over with bourbon. Then combine the remaining bourbon with the brown sugar, coriander, dry mustard, and orange marmalade and pat the mixture firmly onto the ham. Stud with cloves, if desired. Return ham to oven for another 30 minutes. Ham will have an appetizing and beautiful glaze. For the variations: Mix the ingredients and follow the Kentucky Glazed Ham directions.
