D&D 2024 recipe: Honeyed Ham with Pineapple Gravy. Source: Heroes' Feast. recipe type Halfling, serves 10-14, diet Vegan Ingredients 1 small (10-pound) spiral-sliced, bone-in ham, preferably shank-end 2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice 0.75 cup honey 0.33 cup packed light brown sugar 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, plus 1 tablespoon 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves, or to taste Freshly ground black pepper 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 shallot, finely chopped 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme Kosher salt 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 cup finely chopped fresh pineapple Instructions Remove the ham from the refrigerator 1½ to 2 hours before cooking so that it starts at room temperature.
