Share:
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups quality white wine vinegar
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 3/4 cups apple juice
- 16 ounces Mexican piloncillo ,can substitute brown sugar - see info in blog post about why piloncillo is recommended. Use slightly less if using brown sugar (it's sweeter than piloncillo)
- 1 large yellow onion ,quartered
- 1 large clove garlic ,halved
- 4 juniper berries ,fyi, you also need these for making Rotkohl
- 4 allspice berries
- 4 whole cloves
- 8 black peppercorns
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 large bay leaf
- 2 teaspoons Kosher or sea salt
- 9 ounces yellow mustard seeds
- 9 ounces brown mustard seeds
Instructions
- Bring all ingredients, except for the mustard seeds, to boil in a medium stock pot. Simmer covered for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and let steep for 1 hour. Strain the ingredients and place the vinegar solution in a large non-reactive bowl (preferably glass).
- Use a spice or coffee grinder to very coarsely grind the mustard seeds.
- Stir the coarsely ground mustard seeds into the vinegar solution. The mixture will initially be liquidy and will thicken over time. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 weeks before using to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. The mustard will initially be quite hot but over this resting period the heat will become more subdued.
- Stored in the fridge, this mustard will keep up to 6 months.
- Note: This recipe can be halved or quartered if you don't want to make a large amount.
