Step 1

Soak the gammon joint for a few hours in cold water, we normally do it overnight, or if you don't have time, rinse under cold water a few times to wash away excess saltiness.

Step 2

Place in a deep pan, fat side up, fill pan with enough water to cover the gammon joint.Add bay leaves and bring to the boil. Turn heat down to a simmer and leave to cook uncovered for 1 ½ hours. Top up with more water if gammon is sticking out of the water?

Step 3

Mix together the glaze ingredients of honey and mustard.

After 1 ½ hours, remove from pan and allow to rest, for 10 minutes. Remove netting from the boiled gammon joint.
