Elevate your condiment game with this zesty and flavorful Low Sodium Horseradish Mustard recipe! Perfect for health-conscious food lovers seeking bold taste without the excess salt, this homemade mustard combines softened mustard seeds with tangy white vinegar and water for a rich base. The addition of freshly grated horseradish delivers a fiery punch, while honey brings just the right touch of sweetness. Bright turmeric and aromatic garlic powder round out the flavor profile, creating a balanced and unique spread that pairs beautifully with sandwiches, meats, and cheeses.

Combine mustard seeds, vinegar, and water in a medium mixing bowl. Stir well, cover, and let it sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours. This allows the seeds to soften and absorb the liquid for better texture and flavor infusion.
After 24 hours, transfer the mustard seed mixture to a food processor or blender. Blend until you achieve a coarse paste. Some seeds might remain whole, which adds to the texture.
Add the grated horseradish, honey, turmeric powder, garlic powder, and ground black pepper to the mustard paste.
Blend the mixture again until smooth or your desired consistency is reached. Taste and adjust flavors, adding more honey or pepper if needed.
Transfer the horseradish mustard to a sterilized jar or airtight container. For the best flavor, allow it to sit in the refrigerator for at least one week before use, letting the flavors meld.
Store the mustard in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. Stir well before each use.
