Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 grams Dry mustard powder
- 120 milliliters Apple cider vinegar
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 5 grams Salt
- 2 grams Turmeric powder
- 2 grams Cayenne pepper
- 60 milliliters Water
- 2 large Eggs
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the dry mustard powder, sugar, salt, turmeric powder, and cayenne pepper until evenly combined.
Gradually pour in the apple cider vinegar and water while whisking continuously to form a smooth paste.
Crack the eggs into a separate small bowl, beat them lightly, and then add to the mustard mixture. Mix thoroughly to incorporate the eggs.
Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and place it over low to medium heat.
Cook while stirring constantly with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to prevent the eggs from curdling. The mixture will gradually thicken as it heats up. This should take about 10–15 minutes.
Once the mustard reaches a creamy, spreadable consistency, remove it from the heat. Be careful not to overcook, as it can turn grainy.
Allow the mustard to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight jar or container.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. The flavor will mellow slightly over time, so allow it to sit for a day or two if desired for a more balanced taste.
