Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 3 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 0.5 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Kosher salt
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the yellow mustard seeds, brown mustard seeds, apple cider vinegar, and water.
Stir the mixture well, cover with plastic wrap, and let it sit at room temperature for 24-48 hours to allow the seeds to soak and soften. Stir occasionally during this time.
Once the mustard seeds have softened, transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor.
Add the Creole seasoning, turmeric, garlic powder, honey, and kosher salt to the blender.
Blend the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes, or until it reaches your desired consistency. For a smoother texture, blend longer; for a grainier texture, pulse only a few times.
Taste the mustard and adjust for seasoning or sweetness if needed by adding more Creole seasoning or honey.
Transfer the finished Creole mustard to a clean, airtight jar or container. It can be used immediately but will develop even better flavor after a day or two in the refrigerator.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. Stir before use if the mixture separates over time.
