2 cup Pineapple juice
1 cup Honey
1 cup Brown sugar
1 qt Hot water

Thinly peeled rind of 1 orange
Thinly peeled rind of 1 lemon

Instructions:
Instructions: Place ham in large roasting pan and pour pineapple juice and honey over top. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Bake at 325 two hours.

Meanwhile, to make sauce: In large saucepan, pour hot water over currants and let stand until plumped, about 20 minutes.

Cut orange and lemon rinds into very fine julienne about 3/4 inch long; poach in simmering water 20 minutes. Drain, discarding water, and set aside.

Stir cornstarch mixture into currants and water; cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until sauce has thickened and become transparent. Add brown sugar, orange and lemon juice, jelly and wine; stir until jelly is melted and add prepared orange and lemon rinds and black cherries. Serve warm over ham slices.

Makes about five cups of sauce.

Di Note: The Botsford Inn is a very nice, old fashioned restaurant located in Farmington, Michigan. I had this there and really liked it and managed to squeeze the recipe out of the chef.
