Preparation
- Step 1
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting lid and store in refrigerator until needed. Making glaze a day in advance allows flavors to bloom and thickens glaze, which makes it easier to apply.

Hi Diane, I am just getting ready to glaze my Easter 2019 baked ham. Just saw your query. I hope you receive this response. You can find sherry vinegar with all of the other specialty vinegars in the condiments aisle. It is actually made from sherry wine that has "turned." Is has distinctive flavor from all other vintagers, so I would opt for getting some. I love playing with sour cherry glazes for pork, smoked ham, chicken or turkey. I also dump in some ground cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
This glaze was absolutely delicious. It added a bright, but not too sweet, flavor to our spiral ham. Hands down the best glaze I’ve ever made. This is now a staple for Easter dinner in my family!
We liked this very much. We used balsamic vinegar (on hand) instead of sherry vinegar (not so). A blender worked fine to blend the ingredients. The kitchen smelled divine as it cooked. I applied a second layer of glaze about halfway through the cooking.
I'm thinking of doing this with my spiced Santa Rosa plum jam that I made during the summer. That seems a lot of dried red pepper—two of our party do not tolerate spicy hot. And what is sherry vinegar. Will red wine or balsamic vinegar do?
