A festive Easter table doesn't have to be heavy; a few neat cuts of meat will suffice. A smoked delicacy is perfect: take a pork ham, which is baked in the oven for several hours, and towards the end of the roasting process, it's drizzled with a delicious glaze, which gives the ham its indescribable flavor and aroma. Make a glaze of honey, brandy, and crushed peppercorns and spread it over the entire surface of the heated ham, then bake until crisp. To prevent the meat from burning, pour water into the bottom of the roasting pan. Serve the ham thinly sliced and enjoy its smoky flavor with honey-spicy notes. And in the morning, you can make sandwiches.
