Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Dry mustard powder
- 3 tablespoons White distilled vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the dry mustard powder and granulated sugar. Mix well to evenly distribute the sugar.
Gradually stir in the water to make a smooth paste, ensuring there are no lumps.
Add the white distilled vinegar and salt to the mixture, stirring until fully combined.
Pour the mixture into a small saucepan and heat over low-medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning or clumping.
Cook the mustard for about 4-5 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency. The mustard will continue to thicken slightly as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the mustard to cool completely.
Transfer the hot mustard to a clean, airtight container and refrigerate. For the best flavor, let it sit for at least 12 hours before serving.
