ham through wire strainer, including onions and apples. Press on solids to
extract as much juice as possible. Degrease strained juices. Add broth,
sugar, and jelly to pan juices and heat to a boil in a saucepan. Mix
cornstarch with mustard and sherry. Wisk rapidly into simmering sauce and
stir for several minutes until blended and slightly thickened. Add currants
