HAM AND CHEESE SCONE SANDWICHES



Ham and Cheese Scone Sandwiches image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Time 1h45m

Yield 9 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 cups (210 grams) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Roasted Garlic, recipe follows
1/2 cup sour cream
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold and cubed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 teaspoon flaky salt
3 tablespoons apricot jam
1/2 pound sliced deli honey ham
1/4 pound sliced sharp white cheddar
1 head of garlic
Olive oil

Steps:

  • For the scones: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and kosher salt in a large bowl and whisk together. In the bowl with the Roasted Garlic, add the sour cream and egg. Whisk together and set aside.
  • Using your fingers or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it forms pea-size bits. Toss in the chives. Add the sour cream mixture and mix just until a sticky dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a liberally floured counter and press together to form a 6-by-6-inch square. Trim each side (keep the trimmings and bake off for a little snack) and cut into 9 squares. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with heavy cream, sprinkle with flaky salt and bake until lightly browned and crackly on top, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • For the sandwiches: Split open the scones and toast the insides on a griddle or pan. Spread about 1/2 teaspoon of the apricot jam on each of the toasted sides. On the bottom halves, layer on the ham, cheese and then the tops of the scones and eat right away.
  • The scones will keep for a couple days in a plastic bag or airtight container at room temperature. Toast and spread with butter or jam.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Slice off the top of the head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil and wrap in foil. Roast for about an hour. Remove from the oven and allow the garlic to cool inside the foil. When cool, open the foil and squeeze the roasted garlic from each clove into a small bowl.

CLASSIC PINEAPPLE-APRICOT GLAZED HAM



Classic Pineapple-Apricot Glazed Ham image

A gorgeous glazed ham calls for a celebration, but it can be a bit daunting to make one. It doesn't have to be that way. As long as you buy the right ham (that's what your butcher is for, friends!), it's a snap to put together a flavorful, fragrant glaze -- and that's really all you need to make this showstopper of a roast.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h55m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 9- to 10-pound bone-in fully-smoked ham (butt or shank half)
2 tablespoons whole cloves
Zest and juice of 2 limes
8 thin slices fresh ginger
2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
1 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • For the ham: Remove the ham from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Trim off any skin from the ham. Use a sharp paring knife to score through the fat in a diagonal crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Insert the cloves into the ham, placing them at the intersections of the cuts (you may have some cloves left over).
  • Put the ham, flat-side down, on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour 1/4 inch water into the bottom of the pan. Transfer to the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 2 hours and 30 minutes (about 15 minutes per pound).
  • Meanwhile make the glaze: Squeeze the lime juice into a small saucepan. Add the ginger and pineapple juice. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Strain, then stir in the lime zest, apricot preserves and Dijon.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F. Pour half the pineapple glaze over the ham and brush to coat. If the water in the bottom of the pan has evaporated, add more. Return the ham to the oven and roast, basting every 10 minutes with the remaining glaze, until glossy and well browned, about 45 minutes more.
  • Let the ham rest for 15 minutes before carving. Carve the ham into slices and serve.
