RAISIN SAUCE FOR HAM, MOM'S



Raisin Sauce for Ham, Mom's image

Mom used this as a glaze or sauce for ham, depending on her mood. When ham is almost done, you can brush some on for a glaze (be careful not to do so earlier because it can burn), or serve on the side for people to sauce their ham!

Provided by Megan Stewart

Categories     Fruit Sauces

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 Tbsp mustard
1/2 c flour
1/2 c raisins
1/4 c vinegar
1 3/4 c water

Steps:

  • 1. Mix dry ingredients, add rest. Cook to a syrup.

Tips for Making Raisin Sauce for Ham:

  • Choose the right raisins: Use plump, juicy raisins for the best flavor. Avoid using dried-out or wrinkled raisins.
  • Prep the raisins: Before adding the raisins to the sauce, soak them in hot water for 10-15 minutes to plump them up. This will also help to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Use a good quality wine: The type of wine you use will have a big impact on the flavor of the sauce. Choose a dry white wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: The sauce should be cooked until the raisins are plump and the flavors have melded, but it should not be overcooked or the raisins will become tough.
  • Serve immediately: Raisin sauce is best served immediately after it is made. It can be served warm or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Raisin sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to enhance the flavor of ham, chicken, pork, and other dishes. It is also a great way to use up leftover raisins. With its sweet and tangy flavor, raisin sauce is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy way to add some extra flavor to your meal, give raisin sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
