Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 3 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons Dry mustard powder
- 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 3 tablespoons Brandy
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the yellow mustard seeds, brown mustard seeds, and the dry mustard powder.
Pour the apple cider vinegar and water over the mustard mixture. Stir to combine. Cover the bowl and let it sit at room temperature for 4-6 hours, or overnight, to allow the seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
After soaking, transfer the mustard mixture to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth or until your desired level of graininess is achieved.
Pour the mustard mixture into a medium saucepan and place it over medium heat.
Stir in the brandy, honey, brown sugar, and salt. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 8-10 minutes, until the mustard thickens to your liking.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mustard cool slightly. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or sweetness as needed.
Transfer the brandied mustard to sterilized jars or airtight containers. Let it cool completely before sealing.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 months. For best flavor, let the mustard sit for at least 24 hours before using to allow the flavors to meld.
