Instructions
Step 1
Place a ham in a large pot. Add carrots, celery ribs, bay leaves, peppercorns, and onions, each studded with 6 cloves. Cover with water, cover pot, and simmer over low heat, skimming occasionally, for 3 hours.
Step 2
Remove ham from broth (reserve broth for dip-in-pot) and place on a cutting board. Cut away and discard rind. Preheat oven to 325°.
Step 3
Combine mustard, egg yolks, and honey in a bowl and mix well. Place ham, fat side up, on a rack set in a roasting pan. Glaze top of ham and bake for 25 minutes. Increase heat to 400° and cook, basting with glaze, for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake until golden, 15 minutes. Cool, then slice. Serve with coarse mustard.
