"A different taste to ham--a bit fruity and still the zing from the ginger make this recipe a nice change from the others. And it is easy to prepare, too."

Even though I had to use a "fake" ham since I was only cooking for 2, I really enjoyed this recipe. The tangy marmalade offset with the ginger and mustard was almost orgasmic. I wanted to eat this with a spoon, but kept it on the ham. I didn't even need the cornstarch. Beautiful recipe. Thnx for posting txzuckerbaeckerin. Made for Comfort Cafe Summer 2009.

I came from Germany quite some years ago and live in North Texas. I used to do pastries and cakes, but had to stop due to health reasons. I still cook, and bake, but in great moderation and not as elaborately, as I've done in the past.  My cats and I enjoy a quiet life and I'm rebuilding friendships and making new ones..
