Ingredients for American Mustard:
Mustard seeds - 2 oz
White wine - 3 fl oz
Salt - 1/2 tsp.
Turmeric - 1 tsp.
Honey - 1 tbsp.
Method of preparing the American Mustard:
  1. Place all the above ingredients into a sterilized jar and mix well. Leave in the fridge for 48 hours. The seeds will soak up the water and expand, so make sure that the container is big enough to allow for this.
  2. After 48 hours, transfer to a blender and blitz to a smooth paste. If you prefer coarser mustard, pulse the blender so that some of the seeds remain whole. If you want a smoother finish, pass the mustard through a fine sieve after blending.
  3. Taste and season. This recipe will pack a little punch at first, but this heat will fade after a while. If you want to liven up the mustard again after a week or two, stir through some more vinegar.
  4. Alternatively, if you’d like a milder flavor, transfer it to a small saucepan and simmer gently for 5-10 minutes, adding a little vinegar or water if it needs loosening up.
