Ingredients

• ✓ rum
• ham
• dijon mustard
• brown sugar
• pineapple slice
• clove
• cornstarch
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
2. 2 Place ham into a roasting pan. Spread Dijon mustard over top and sides of ham in an even coat; sprinkle ham with brown sugar. Press brown sugar onto ham with your hands. Place pineapple slices onto ham, securing them to the top and sides with cloves. Place any unused pineapple slices into the bottom of the roasting pan and pour pineapple juice and 2 ounces orange-flavored rum.
3. 3 Bake in the preheated oven until ham is heated through and brown sugar has begun to glaze onto the meat, about 1 hour. Remove ham from the oven and pour remaining 2 ounces of orange rum over the ham; carefully light the rum on fire with a match. The flames will help the glaze to adhere to the meat.
4. 4 Continue baking until an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the ham, not touching bone, reads at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), about 1 more hour. Let ham rest for 10 minutes before serving. Transfer ham to a serving platter, leaving pan drippings in the roasting pan.
5. 5 Stir cornstarch and water together in a small bowl until smooth; whisk cornstarch into pan drippings. Place roasting pan over medium-low heat and whisk until pan juices thicken, about 5 minutes. Serve with ham.

Instructions

1. 1 Heat a skillet over low heat. Add brown sugar, butter, garlic, pepper flakes, and salt; stir to combine and cook until bubbling and sugar has dissolved, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in apricots and cook until soft and plumped, about 5 minutes. Add rum; continue to cook and stir until liquid has reduced and a thick syrup has formed, about 5 minutes.

5. 5 Toss and fold your dough into a rough ball shape using wet fingers and a bench scraper. Transfer dough back to the bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 3 hours.
6. 6 Transfer dough back to your work surface and shape into a rough ball. Place into a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
7. 7 Remove dough from the bag and press out into a flat rectangle. Sprinkle with flour and roll out to at least 1/2-inch thickness. Spread the dried fruit all over the surface. Roll dough up into a log, sealing in the fruit. Roll both ends of the log toward the middle and smooth it over into a ball.
8. 8 Place dough ball into a short, wide paper panettone mold. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until dough is at least 2/3 of the way up the sides, 3 to 4 hours.

3. 3 Separate the eggs and set egg whites aside. Beat egg yolks together on medium-high speed until very thick, about 4 minutes. Gradually add ½ cup of cold water. Add 1 ¼ cups of white sugar, slowly, and beat well for about 3 more minutes. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Add flour mixture to egg yolk mixture and fold in.
4. 4 Beat egg whites and cream of tartar together until stiff peaks form. Fold into egg yolk mixture; divide the cake batter between the prepared pans.
5. 5 Bake cakes in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes; invert and cool completely. While the cakes are cooling, you can make the ricotta filling and rum syrup.
6. 6 To make the ricotta filling: Beat ricotta cheese well and add confectioner's sugar and cinnamon. Add 1 ½ teaspoons of vanilla and 2 ounces of grated chocolate. Stir in candied lemon peel and mix. Chill filling until ready to use.
7. 7 To make the rum syrup: Place 1/3 cup of sugar and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Boil 1 minute and then remove from heat and add rum. Cool syrup to room temperature.
8. 8 Cut each cooled cake in half. Place one of the 4 halves on a cake board or plate and sprinkle with a little of the rum syrup.
9. 9 Spread 1 ½ cups of the filling over this layer. Add a second layer of cake and repeat this procedure. Top the cake with the remaining piece of cake. Chill cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
10. 10 To make the chocolate glaze: Melt 6 ounces of chocolate and cream together in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave; whisk until smooth. Add butter and whisk until dissolved. Cool mixture until spreadable.
11. 11 Spread over the top of the chilled cake.

Ingredients

• ✓ rum
• sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

1. 1 Remove the labels from the cans of milk. Place the cans into a large saucepan, and cover with a few inches of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer for 4 hours. Keep an eye on the water level, and add water as needed to keep at least an inch of water above the cans. After the cans have boiled for 4 hours, remove from the boiling water and set aside to cool for 35 minutes.
2. 2 Open the cans and scrape the browned milk into a bowl, whisk in the spiced rum until smooth, then pour into a bottle with a top. The liqueur will keep for several months in the refrigerator.

Ingredients

• ✓ rum
• watermelon

Instructions

1. 1 Rinse the outer rind of the watermelon thoroughly, and pat dry. Set the watermelon in a position so it will not roll over. Press the tip of a funnel through the rind of the melon. If using a plastic funnel, you may need to cut a hole.
2. 2 Situate the melon on a towel in the bottom of the refrigerator or on the counter. Pour rum into the funnel a little at a time, refilling as it seeps into the melon. I start the afternoon before, since we usually leave to go to events in the morning. Allow the melon to marinate at least a few hours, before removing the funnel. Slice just before serving.

Ingredients

• ✓ rum
• ✓ rum
• fig
• gelling sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Rinse figs well. Cut off stems and cut each fig in half or quarters, depending on their size.
2. 2 Put figs and rum in a large pot over medium-high heat; bring to a light boil. Maintain a light boil and cook for 20 minutes. Stir in sugar, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cook for exactly 6 minutes.
3. 3 Meanwhile, inspect 3 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until fig preserves are ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
4. 4 Remove fig preserves from the heat and distribute evenly into the hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly. Put jars upside down on a clean cloth and leave until completely cool, 3 to 4 hours.
5. 5 Store in a cool, dry place with no light.
