Makes

About 1 1/4 cups

Ingredients
 
 

  • ½ cup apricot or peach preserves
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons salad grade balsamic vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
  • 1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon paprika (or smoked paprika)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon ground chipotle
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • teaspoon cinnamon powder
  • teaspoon rubbed sage (sage powder)
  • teaspoon ground cloves

Method
 

  1. Prep. In a small saucepan, combine the glaze ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate until you need it. It will keep for weeks.
  2. Serve. If using as a ham glaze, begin brushing the ham during the last hour of heating so that the sugars do not burn. Brush the ham once more just prior to serving.
