I have been thinking I should make some kind of flavored mustard for Christmas presents. Anyone done this? I have been looking on line but haven't found anything that thrills me. Mary |

Mary, I've done garlic-dill mustard, and sweet-hot mustard for Christmas gifts. Unfortunately I'm not sure where the recipes I used are; it was like 8 years ago. If you haven't made mustard before, though, you're going to need a very well-ventilated area; mustard will gas you out of your home otherwise (I speak from experience). What did you have in mind? |

I didn't have any firm ideas. I did want to start from seed not powder though. Mary |

Guiness spicy mustard is good. Recipe is in Saveur. They also have a section on how to make your own condiments. Looks interesting. |

Mary, You can use whole seeds, ground seeds, yellow or brown mustard or a mix. You're going to need to crush at least some of the seeds to get the mustard to thicken up. |

I want to get the seeds at an Indian grocer as they are a much better price and I can buy them in bulk. I would love to see you recipes. Mary One more question... How far ahead should I make this. For some reason I thought there was a long "cure" time but the recipes I've seen seem to say otherwise and also that the shelf life is not all that long... Your thoughts? Mary |

Mary, Couple days, really. Doesn't need any more than that. And yeah, you should go somewhere you can buy mustard seed by the kilogram. You need a lot of mustard seed to make a decent mustard. BTW, I do actually have a mustard recipe book. I just haven't been able to locate it yet and haven't had much time to look. |
