  • 2 cups liquid of choice Try a mixture of beer or water and vinegar
  • Extra ingredients/flavorings – amounts are variable

Instructions

  • Add the mustard seeds and liquid to a large glass jar. Give it a solid shake and seal it up.
  • Set into a dark place like the cupboard for a day or 2 to allow the seeds to absorb the liquid.
  • Process the mixture in a food processor with your extra ingredients. Adjust with a bit of salt, if desired. You can add in a bit of water if you feel the mustardis too thick.
  • Return the finished mustard to the jar and seal.

Notes

The flavors will be quite pungent at first, though they will mellow out over time as the mustard ages. Serve it as is, or process it for a thicker consistency. Vary up the liquids and add additional ingredients to make your own unique mustard recipes. Refer to the post above for ideas and suggestions.
