Whole Grain Mustard

Whole Grain Mustard

Pungent, seedy, and customizable. Brown mustard seeds for heat, yellow for mildness.

Time: 10 minutes + 2 days soaking  ·  Yield: About 350 ml (1½ cups)

Ingredients

  • 80 g (⅓ cup) yellow mustard seeds
  • 40 g (3 Tbsp) brown mustard seeds
  • 120 ml (½ cup) apple cider vinegar
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) white wine or beer (or water)
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • ¾ tsp fine sea salt
  • ¼ tsp turmeric

Method

  1. Combine both mustard seeds, vinegar, and wine/beer in a jar. Stir, cover, and let sit at room temperature for 48 hours. The seeds will absorb the liquid and swell.
  2. Transfer to a food processor or blender. Add the honey, salt, and turmeric. Pulse to your desired consistency — leave it chunky for whole grain mustard, or blend smooth for a Dijon-style.
  3. If too thick, add water 1 tablespoon at a time. Taste and adjust vinegar and honey.
  4. Transfer to a clean jar. The flavor will mellow and improve over the next week.
  5. *Storage:** Refrigerator for 3-6 months.
