Fry the coarse mustard in the oil until it stops sizzling and let the remaining seeds dry. Set the oil aside for the emulsion.
Combine all the ingredients for the emulsion and monté with the oil. Cut the carrots into thin slices, bring the liquid to a boil, vacuum-pack both the carrots and the liquid and then refrigerate.
