Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons dry mustard powder
- 0.5 cup white distilled vinegar
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons honey
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the mustard powder and white distilled vinegar until smooth. Cover the bowl and let the mixture sit for at least 1 hour at room temperature. This step helps to mellow out the sharpness of the mustard.
After the resting time, whisk in the granulated sugar, egg yolks, and honey until fully combined and smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan and cook it over low heat while stirring constantly. It’s important to stir continuously to avoid scorching or curdling the egg yolks.
Cook the mixture for about 8-10 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency. The mustard will slightly thicken more as it cools.
Remove the saucepan from heat and transfer the mustard to a clean, sterilized jar or container. Allow it to cool completely before sealing with a lid.
Refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop. This mustard can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks.
