Maple Mustard Marinade Food

ONE-BOWL, ALL-PURPOSE MAPLE MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Simple whisk together the maple syrup and both mustards until smooth. Use as a glaze before cooking or as a slather or sauce after. Try topping meatloaf or salmon, pork or even tofu!
• Sauce will keep for 1 week in refrigerator in an airtight container, but we usually just make it right before we need it.

MAPLE SYRUP MARINADE

Steps:

• To the maple syrup bottle (or a glass bottle with a lid), add the syrup, shallot, vinegar, mustard, rosemary, garlic and pepper. Cover and shake vigorously to combine. Add the oil, cover and shake vigorously again to combine. Season with the salt.
• Use as a marinade for pork chops or chicken.

MAPLE MUSTARD GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Whisk together maple syrup, mustard, lemon juice, paprika and salt. Reserve 1/4 cup of marinade to brush on chicken when cooking. Pour remaining marinade over chicken and refrigerate a few hours to overnight.
• Remove chicken from marinade and grill 12 to 15 minutes, until juices run clear. Brush chicken on both sides with reserved marinade before removing from grill.

GRILLED MAPLE MUSTARD CHICKEN

Steps:

• See notes about marinating time.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the spicy brown mustard, dijon mustard, maple syrup, garlic, rosemary, vinegar, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Trim the chicken of any fat and place in a glass baking dish or zip lock bag. Pour 3/4 of the marinade over the chicken and turn the chicken until coated on all sides. Cover and refrigerate the chicken at least 2 hours or overnight. Refrigerate the remaining 1/4 of the marinade in a separate bowl.
• When the chicken is done marinating, preheat grill to 500 degrees. Place the chicken on the grill and grill 5-8 minutes per side or until the thickest parts of each chicken breast reaches 160 degrees.
• When the chicken is done, let it rest on a plate for 5 minutes before serving.

MAPLE & MUSTARD GLAZED HAM

Steps:

• Put the gammon in a very large pan and cover with cold water. Add the spices and bay. Bring to the boil, then turn down and simmer for around 1 hr 50 mins, topping up the water level with boiling water, if necessary. Scoop off any scum that rises to the top every now and then.
• Carefully pour the liquid away (I like to keep it for making soup), then let the ham cool a little while you heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Lift the ham into a large roasting tin, then cut away the skin leaving behind an even layer of fat. Score the fat all over in a criss-cross pattern, then stud cloves all over the ham. Can now be chilled for up to 2 days.
• Mix the glaze ingredients in a jug. Pour half over the fat, roast for 15 mins, then pour over the rest and return to the oven for another 35 mins, basting with the pan juices 3-4 times as it bakes. Turn the pan around a few times during cooking so the fat colours evenly. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 15 mins before carving. Can be roasted on the day or up to 2 days ahead and served cold.
