Whole Grain Mustard #Recipe

Today, I made whole grain mustard and I am surprised by how flavorful and delicious it is. It has a pungent taste, a bit of heat, and a touch of sweetness. You won’t find mustard in the store with this kind of flavor. And it was very easy to make. Best of all, there are no chemicals, stabilizers, or preservatives in it. Only good, wholesome ingredients. A blender is the only special equipment you need. I use a Ninja, but a stick blender or regular blender should work just fine. My husband and I also made pretzels to go with the mustard. As you can see from the picture below, our rolling and shaping skills need honing. lol

• 1/3 cup yellow mustard seeds

• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions:

1. Pour both types of mustard seeds into a small mixing bowl and whisk together until well blended.
2. Stir vinegar and water (or ale) into the mustard seeds until just combined.
3. Cover the mixture and set in a cool, dry place for 12 hours or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
4. Stir the remaining ingredients into the mustard seed mixture and pour into a blender.
5. Pulse mixture 5 to 6 times before running the motor for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
