Country Mustard

[Jon Solberg]

Inspired by Berry I wanted to try to make some mustard for my Cuban sandwiches. Stumbled on this from Hank Shaw

Im a big Hank Shaw fan.

I just put the first batch in the Fridge from brown seeds. Hope it mellows a bit. : 0

Jon Solberg, Thanks for the Link Jon! My Dad used to make Hot Mustard w/Horseraddish it would make you Sweat but was Great!

The first time I tried mustard seeds I crunched a few in my mouth... I thought, "Wow what a bunch of useless birdseed, there's no flav---...YOWZERS!"... spicy little buggers.

Marauderer posted this recipe a while back. I love it. In my experience, the brown seeds are much hotter than the yellow seeds--I usually do them about 50/50. I also use a basic blender instead of a hand blender.

I found this recipe in Gourmet Magazine back when it was a bimonthly periodical.
This makes about 1.5 cups
It only takes about 10 min but you have to let the mustard seeds soak for two days.

½ cp mustard seeds (different seeds, different flavors)
¾ cp cider vinegar (I use Braggs)
1/3 cp water
1 ¼ tsp sugar
1 ½ tsp salt

Soak mustard seeds in the vinegar and water for two days at room temp. (if seeds are not submerged add a bit of water until they are)
Puree mixture with the sugar and salt in food processor, I use a hand blender, until almost smooth, about 2 min.
Thin to desired consistency with additional water and season with salt to taste.
Chilled the mustard will last at least a month.

I've been dreaming about making my own mustard .... really. I'll be trying this recipe out soon

I like mustard, but never though much about it until my wife brought back a jar of a jalapeno mustard called "Fat Dog" from Oregon. OMG! It's the most incredible stuff I've ever had and it's just mustard! Maybe I can figure out the recipe now. LOL
