Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 0.5 cup White wine vinegar
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric (optional, for color)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the yellow mustard seeds, brown mustard seeds, dry white wine, and white wine vinegar.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the mixture sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours to soften the seeds and allow the flavors to develop.
After 24 hours, pour the mixture into a blender or food processor along with water, honey, salt, and turmeric (if using).
Blend the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency. For a coarser mustard, pulse lightly; for a smoother texture, blend longer.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more honey for sweetness or salt for balance.
Transfer the mustard to a sterilized glass jar or airtight container.
Refrigerate for at least 2–3 days before using to allow the flavors to deepen.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.
