1 C ground yellow mustard seed
2/3 C of The Olive Bin's Maple Balsamic Vinegar
1/3 C honey (more or less to taste)
1 tsp sea salt
Must-Have Mustard
Ingredients
Directions
- Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and cook over medium-low to medium heat for six (6) minutes.
- Stir frequently until sauce thickens; remove from heat. Allow the mustard to cool completely, and store in an airtight container.
To preserve spiciness in your mustard, refrigerate immediately. To mellow the kick, allow to sit at room temperature for 1-2 days (the longer it sits at room temperature, the less spice is preserved).
Additional Info
The main ingredient in this common condiment is actually balsamic vinegar - and now that you know, you can make your own mustard that's better in taste and without the additives of store-bought condiments!
Get creative with your mustard by changing the flavor of balsamic vinegar (try Honey Gineger or Serrano Honey (Seasonal)!) You can also add herbs, truffle salts, wine, ale, chilies, peppercorns, horseradish, or any other flavoring you want to try!
Makes approximately 1 1/2 cups of mustard.
