Smoked Honey Mustard
Ingredients
- ¼ cup whole brown mustard seeds*
- ¼ cup whole yellow mustard seeds*
- ½ cup cold water
- ¼ cup whey (the liquid from plain, unsweetened yogurt, or live kombucha, or sauerkraut juice)
- 2 tablespoons ground mustard powder*
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons liquid smoke
- ¼ cup cider vinegar
- ¼ cup honey
Instructions
- Grind the mustard seeds coarsely in a spice grinder or blender. Pour them into a 1-pint glass jar. Add the cold water and the whey. Mix. Seal jar tightly and set aside at room temperature for 3 days. Stir in the mustard powder, salt, garlic powder, liquid smoke, cider vinegar and honey. Refrigerate.** Mixture will thicken as it sits.
Notes
* I buy organic ground mustard and mustard seeds from Starwest Botanicals: starwest-botanicals.com
** Because of its antibacterial and antifungal properties mustard is food safe at room temperature, but room temperature will destroy the pungency. Refrigerate for maximum quality.
