This is based on a recollection of my childhood, where we had baked ham for Christmas
dinner. I've also taken ideas from a recipe
in Stephanie Alexander's
The Cook's Companion.
I'm still not 100% happy with it, but it's not too bad.

and insert a clove in each, stem first.

it has dried. Grill if necessary to get a mid-brown colour.
