Instructions

1 Start by soaking the great northern beans overnight in water to soften them and
decrease the cooking duration.
2 Bring 8 cups of water to a boil in a large pot, then add the pre-soaked beans.
3 Lower the heat, then mix in salt, carrots, onion, celery, garlic, mustard
powder, and bay leaves.
4 Introduce the ham hock to the mixture, cover the pot, and let it simmer until
the beans become soft, about 1 hour.
5 Remove the ham hock, stir in the chopped ham, and allow it to simmer for an
additional 30 minutes.
6 Finish by seasoning with ground white pepper according to your taste and remove
the bay leaves before serving.
