1

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

2

Score the surface of the ham in a diamond pattern.

3

Stud the ham with whole cloves, inserting them into the intersections of the scored lines.

4

In a saucepan, combine brown sugar, honey, mustard, apple cider vinegar, and water.

5

Heat the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally.

6

Pour the glaze over the ham, ensuring it seeps into the scored cuts.

7

Place the ham in a roasting pan, and cover it loosely with foil.

8

Bake the ham for about 1.5 to 2 hours, basting every 30 minutes with the glaze.

9

Remove the foil in the last 30 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelize.

10

Check the internal temperature; it should reach 140°F (60°C).

11

Let the ham rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing.

12

Garnish with fresh herbs and serve with sides.
