Ingredients
3 Tbsp water
5 Tbsp vinegar- 0.5 cup mustard powder
1 Tbsp sugar- 0.25 tsp salt
1 tsp turmeric (optional)
0.5 tsp sweet paprika (optional)
Instructions
Step 1
For mild mustard, combine the water and vinegar and bring to a boil, then mix in mustard powder, sugar, and salt.
Step 2
Using boiling hot vinegar and water will significantly reduce the nose hit from the mustard powder.
Step 3
Use cold liquids for hotter mustard. For variations, try substituting a dry white wine or lemon juice in place of the water.
Step 4
Mustard seeds/powder can be any type: mild, hot, yellow, or brown. Add whole or crushed mustard seeds after completing the basic recipe. They adsorb a lot of liquid. If extra liquid is needed, consider using vinegar first.
Step 5
You can experiment with numerous other spices and flavors. The most popular additions are turmeric (optional) and sweet paprika (optional).
