   • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

2. Prepare the Ham:

   • Place the ham, fat side up, in a roasting pan or on a rack in a shallow roasting pan.
   • Pour water into the pan.

3. Initial Baking:

   • Bake the ham in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

4. Glaze Preparation:

   • In a small bowl, combine the orange marmalade and both types of mustard (stone ground and dry). Mix them well to create the glaze.

5. Glazing and Baking:

   • After the first hour of baking, remove the ham from the oven.
   • Add the dry sherry to the roasting pan.
   • If necessary, trim excess fat from the ham.
   • Score the ham diagonally at one-inch intervals, about 1/4 inch deep. Score in the opposite direction to form diamond shapes.
   • Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the ham, ensuring it doesn’t touch fat or bone.

6. Applying the Glaze:

   • Brush half of the marmalade-mustard glaze over the ham, ensuring it covers the surface evenly.
   • Baste the ham with the pan juices.

7. Final Baking:

   • Return the ham to the oven.
   • Continue baking for 1 to 1 1/2 hours more, or until the meat thermometer registers 140°F (60°C).
   • Baste the ham frequently with the pan juices and brush it with the remaining marmalade mixture during this time.

8. Resting and Serving:

   • Once baked, let the ham stand in the roasting pan for about 15 minutes before slicing.
   • Baste the ham one final time with the pan juices before slicing it.

9. Enjoy:

   • Serve the Baked Ham with Orange-Mustard Glaze warm, allowing everyone to enjoy the delicious flavors.
