Updated on Jun 6, 2012

This is a recipe that I can remember my grandmother on my dad’s side making, I think it was handed down from her mother. She always had this in her pantry down in the basement. I tried to divide this in half, but it looses something so I only make this when I know I’ll be sharing this with my family and friends. Funny story I use to tell everyone I hated mustard, never realized that this was a mustard based spread. Times were hard back then but we always had wonderful and homemade things to eat. I am so glad this was passed down through the family. The amounts are her original amounts.
