INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Ever tried making infused oil with marzipan, honey, and dried apricots? I did – and it’s… something. The result? A barely sweet oil with whisper-soft hints of honey but not much else. It’s a quirky little experiment that didn’t quite hit the mark but still feels like it belongs in the “worth a try” category. Let’s call it a creative fail with a glimmer of potential.

How to serve
This oil works as a subtle drizzle over freshly baked bread or stirred into yogurt for a touch of sweetness. It’s also not bad brushed onto pastries before baking – though don’t expect bold flavors. Try mixing it into salad dressings for a fun experiment, or pair it with salty crackers to balance the sweetness. Basically, have fun with it and lower your expectations. If you’re in the mood for a special honey-apricot treat, you absolutely need to try these Honeycomb Apricot Marshmallow Fluff Cookies!

How to store
Store your oil in a clean, airtight glass bottle in a cool, dark place for up to one week. If any solid residue settles, give it a gentle shake before use.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Infusing oil with cream, almonds, and whiskey? It sounded like a festive dream, but sometimes experiments don’t go as planned. While the sweetness came through, the flavors stayed too subtle to truly shine. Still, the process was fun and a great way to explore holiday-inspired cooking. This recipe might not have hit the jackpot, but it’s perfect for adventurous foodies who love to try something new in the kitchen.

How to serve
This oil is subtle but could still work as a light drizzle over desserts like vanilla ice cream or holiday cakes. Try pairing it with toasted bread and a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar for a festive twist. It’s also an interesting base for salad dressings or sauces that need just a hint of sweetness. While not bold, the oil adds a touch of uniqueness to simple dishes. If you’re craving some real creaminess, you should definitely give this German Eggnog a try!

How to store
Store this oil in a clean, airtight bottle in your fridge for up to a week. Keep it away from direct sunlight to preserve its subtle flavor. If you notice any changes in smell or texture, it’s best to discard it and start fresh.

  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 2 hrs + 40 min
  • Yield: 6 - 8 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • deep baking dish or roasting pan
  • aluminum foil
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • kitchen brush for glazing
  • meat thermometer
  • vegetable peeler
  • small pot

Ingredients

Units Scale

PORK HAM

  • 1.8 kilogramm cured pork ham with rind
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • salt & pepper

COOKING LIQUID

  • 750 milliliter vegetable stock
  • 1.5 white onions
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tbsp black pepper corns

CRANBERRY ORANGE GLAZE

  • 1 lemon
  • 1 orange
  • 200 milliliter port wine
  • 1 shallot
  • 3/4 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • 100 grams fresh cranberries
  • 200 grams redcurrant jelly
  • salt & black pepper

Instructions

  1. Take the meat out of the fridge and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes to ensure even cooking later.
  2. In the meantime, prepare the glaze. You can find the recipe for the cranberry-orange sauce here, which we’ll use both as a glaze and a sauce later.
  3. Preheat the oven to 150°C/300°F (fan).
  4. Peel the onions, garlic, and carrots, then cut them into large chunks.
  5. Pour vegetable broth into a deep baking dish or roasting pan and place the meat in it, rind side down. Distribute the chopped vegetables, pepper, and bay leaves around it.
  6. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place it in the oven for 40 minutes.
  7. Remove the dish from the oven and transfer the meat to a cutting board, placing it rind side up. You now have two options: either remove the rind completely, leaving the fat layer intact, and score the fat closely with a sharp knife without cutting into the meat. Or, leave the rind on and score it diagonally in a tight pattern, again without cutting into the meat. Return the meat to the oven uncovered and roast for an additional hour.
  8. After 30 minutes, brush the rind with the first layer of glaze. Repeat this every 10 minutes (a total of 3 times). Be sure to save some of the glaze, as it will be used as a sauce later. Once the meat reaches an internal temperature of 65°C/149°F, switch the oven to grill mode and roast the rind for about 10 minutes until it becomes perfectly crispy. The roast should now have an internal temperature of around 68-69°C/154-156°F.
  9. Remove the meat from the oven, cover it with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. During this time, the internal temperature will rise to about 72°C/162°F, and the juices will redistribute within the meat.
  10. Slice the meat against the grain into thick slices for serving as a main course or into thin slices for making sandwiches. Enjoy!
