Homemade Spicy Mustard

A quick and easy homemade mustard!
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds (also called white mustard seeds)
- 2 tablespoons brown mustard seeds
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar , or coconut vinegar
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
Instructions
- To get started, you'll need to grind the mustard seeds. You can grind them by hand the old-fashioned way, using a mortar and pestle, for a bit of an arm workout! Or, use a spice grinder to make the process faster.
- Once the spices are ground, transfer to a glass storage jar and add in the rest of the ingredients. Stir well to mix.
- For best flavor, allow the mustard to sit at room temperature for up to 8 hours before storing in the fridge. (You can actually let the mustard "cure" for a few days on the counter, if you like, but I haven't tried it myself.)
- If the mustard has a little too much "bite," try adding a bit of honey or coconut crystals to balance the flavor.
- The mustard flavor will get better with time, so it's best to make homemade mustard a few days before you plan on serving it.
- Store in the fridge, and use it to make your favorite sandwiches and salad dressings!
Notes
- The more finely ground your mustard seeds, the more potent and spicy the flavor will be. For a more mild mustard, try soaking the seeds whole, with the rest of the ingredients, then briefly pulsing in the food processor for a chunkier whole grain mustard. Instead of water, you can use white wine, beer or apple cider for a more complex flavor. I recommend apple cider vinegar or coconut vinegar because they are less acidic and yeast-feeding than traditional vinegars, but any type of vinegar can be used to make mustard. Feel free to add any herbs you like, such as fresh dill. For a spicier mustard, try adding a bit of horseradish or garlic. For a honey mustard, try adding a 1/4 cup of honey.
