Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 3 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground turmeric
- 0.5 cups White vinegar
- 0.5 cups Water
- 1 teaspoons Honey (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine yellow and brown mustard seeds with water and vinegar. Stir well to ensure all seeds are submerged.
Cover the bowl and let the mixture soak at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a stronger flavor.
After soaking, transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor. Blend until the desired consistency is reached, leaving it slightly grainy or smooth, as preferred.
Add ground turmeric, honey (if using), and salt to the mixture. Blend again briefly to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more vinegar for tanginess or honey for sweetness.
Transfer the mustard to a clean jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to let the flavors meld.
Serve as a condiment or use in recipes. The mustard can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
