Homemade Spicy Mustard Recipe
Description
This mustard recipe begins by combining equal parts apple cider vinegar and beer with a mixture of yellow, brown, and black mustard seeds. The seeds soak in the liquid overnight, allowing them to absorb moisture and swell. The next day, chopped habanero peppers and salt are added to introduce heat and seasoning.
The mixture is then processed in a food processor to achieve the desired consistency, whether keeping some seeds whole for texture or blending smooth. The acid from the vinegar and beer keeps the mustard bright, while the habanero peppers provide a noticeable, spicy warmth.
The mustard may be stored in sterilized jars and flavors will continue to develop with time. This spicy homemade mustard works well as a condiment for meats and snacks or as a flavorful ingredient in recipes that call for a fiery mustard component.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup yellow mustard seeds
- 1/4 cup mustard seeds brown variety
- 1/4 cup black mustard seeds
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup beer I used a Mexican lager
- 4 habanero pepper chopped (innards removed for a bit less heat
- salt I use .5 teaspoon, to taste
Instructions
- To a large mixing bowl, add mustard seeds with vinegar and beer. Mix well. Pour into a large jar and seal.
- Set the jar in a dry place overnight to let the seeds absorb the liquid, at least 12 hours. You will notice the seeds grow larger, but the mixture still looks like mustard seeds floating in liquid.
- Stir in the habanero peppers and salt. Mix well.
- Add to a food processor and process to your personal tastes. You can process only a little to keep most of the seeds, or go to town and really mix it together. I processed mine to about 80 percent, keeping a few seeds in there.
- Set the mustard into a sterilized jar and serve! The flavors will keep developing as time goes by.
