Homemade Chipotle-Honey Mustard

Homemade Chipotle-Honey Mustard Recipe

I've been on a mustard kick lately. I just made a batch of Roasted Hatch Chile-Beer Mustard and we burned through the jar pretty quickly.

Patty loves the stuff, too.

It's definitely one of our go-to condiments in the summer and fall, perfect for spooning into sandwiches, sausages, pretty much anything grilled. I almost never buy it from the store now, ever since I learned how to make it from scratch at home.

When you make it at home, you can make it as creamy or grainy as you'd like, and you're not limited by what the store has to offer.

You can add in all sorts of ingredients to make combinations you'd never find anywhere else, like this particular recipe - Chipotle-Honey Mustard.

We love this stuff. It's definitely sweet from the honey, but not too sweet, though if you WANTED more sweetness with the resulting mustard, just add in more honey.

It is totally under your control.

You'll note the smoky zing from the chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, which adds a bit of pop to anything you add it to.

Homemade Chipotle-Honey Mustard Ingredients

• Brown and Yellow Mustard Seeds.
• Apple Cider Vinegar.
• IPA Beer. Sorry, you have to drink the rest!
• Jalapeno Peppers. Roasted, peeled and chopped (or peppers of your choice).
• Chipotle Peppers. In adobo sauce.
• Honey. Or more to taste.
• Salt. To taste.

Homemade Chipotle-Honey Mustard - The Recipe Method

Just soak the mustard seeds overnight in a combination of vinegar and beer. I used a good local IPA. Don't use lousy beer for this. Lousy beer translates to lousy mustard.

We want flavor here, my friends!

Once the mustard seeds have properly absorbed all of that liquid, simply process the whole thing in a food processor or blender with your other ingredients until they are nicely blended together, and you've achieved a creaminess you prefer.

Again, the choice is yours, as you can create a grainy mustard or a very creamy version. I tend to fall in the middle, as you can see from the photo.

And please, don't forget the roasted chili peppers. I picked a small variety from my garden (which is still producing! Yes!), though you're free to use whatever you'd like. Grab a couple jalapeno peppers. Or hey, get nice and spicy with some habanero peppers or even ghost or scorpions.

Oh yeah! See here for How to Roast Chili Peppers.

I hope you enjoy this particular mustard. The stuff keeps practically forever. We always have a homemade mustard in the fridge.

It's convenient not only as a flavorful spread, but you can use it to form powerful marinades, quick sauces and rubs, and so much more. Homemade mustard is a kitchen essential.
