- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the pineapple juice, brown sugar, honey, Dijon mustard, ground cloves, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the brown sugar dissolves completely.
Step 3
Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together to create a slurry.
Step 5
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the simmering mixture while whisking constantly.
Step 6
Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes, or until the glaze has thickened to your desired consistency.
Step 7
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the glaze cool slightly.
Step 8
Brush the glaze liberally over your cooked corned beef or ham before serving. For extra flavor, you can reserve a small amount of glaze to serve on the side as a dipping sauce.
