diy essentials: clear your sinuses brown mustard
Okay, first off, this ain’t your basic Grey Poupon… Full Stop. This stuff is hot enough to set the curtains on fire. So, first off, if you do not like hot stuff, then back away from this recipe. On the other hand, if you like hot, then go for it. I love putting this on a good pub burger; however, a little goes a long way, and I spread it so thin, that you can barely see it… but you will taste it. I also use it to flavor soups and stews, and I have been known to mix it up with some ground beef, turkey, or pork, before cooking. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.

How To Make diy essentials: clear your sinuses brown mustard
-
Step 1PREP/PREPARE
-
Step 2For this recipe, you will need a good blender or food processor.
-
Step 3Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
-
Step 4Add the wine, apple cider vinegar, garlic, and peppercorns into a saucepan over medium heat. Bring up to a light simmer, and cook for about 15 minutes.
-
Step 5Meanwhile, add the pepper, dry mustard, and the brown and yellow mustard seeds to a small non-reactive jar, with a lid (like a mason jar).
-
Step 6Add the honey to the hot liquid, and stir to combine.
-
Step 7Strain the hot liquid over the dry spices.
-
Step 8Seal, and place into the fridge overnight, or up to two days.
-
Step 9Place the seeds into the bowl of a food processor, fitted with a S-blade, or a good blender (Vitamix comes to mind).
-
Step 10Blend on high, adding additional wine, and vinegar, until you achieve the desired consistency.
-
Step 11Chef’s Note: If you want more of a wine flavor use more wine; if you want tart, use more vinegar. I wound up adding a bit more than a cup (mostly wine), to get it to a smooth consistency.
-
Step 12Chef’s Note: If you want, you could blend half, and add to the unblended seeds to achieve more of a stone-ground mustard.
-
Step 13PLATE/PRESENT
-
Step 14Use anywhere you want to set the curtains on fire, and do not forget to have the paramedics on standby. Enjoy
-
Step 15Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
