Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Yellow mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons Brown mustard seeds
- 1 cup Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cup Water
- 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the yellow mustard seeds and brown mustard seeds with apple cider vinegar and water. Stir well to ensure the seeds are fully submerged.
Cover the bowl and let the mixture sit at room temperature for 24-48 hours. Stir occasionally to ensure even soaking, allowing the seeds to absorb the liquid and soften.
After soaking, pour the mustard seed mixture into a blender or food processor. Add ground turmeric, ground cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, honey, and salt.
Blend the mixture until it reaches your desired consistency. For a smoother mustard, blend longer; for a coarser texture, pulse the mixture carefully.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Add a small amount of water if the consistency is too thick.
Transfer the mustard to a sterilized jar or airtight container. Let it mellow in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 days before using to allow the flavors to fully develop.
Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, and enjoy it on hot dogs, sandwiches, or as a dip!
