Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 1/3 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 1/3 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Ground turmeric (optional, for color)
Instructions
In a small bowl or jar, combine the yellow mustard seeds and brown mustard seeds.
Add the apple cider vinegar and water to the seeds, stirring to mix evenly.
Cover the mixture with plastic wrap or a lid and let it sit at room temperature for 12-24 hours. The seeds will absorb the liquid and soften over time.
Once the soaking period is complete, transfer the soaked mustard seed mixture to a blender or food processor.
Add the honey, salt, and optional ground turmeric to the blender along with the mustard seeds.
Pulse the mixture several times to achieve your desired consistency. For a coarser texture, pulse less frequently. For a smoother mustard, blend for longer.
Taste the mustard and adjust the seasoning, adding more honey for sweetness or more salt for depth, if needed.
Transfer the mustard to a clean, airtight jar and store it in the refrigerator. Allow the flavors to meld for at least 24 hours before serving for the best taste.
Use your homemade coarse ground mustard within 1-2 months for optimal freshness.
