Hot Pepper Mustard Recipes

HOT PEPPER MUSTARD RECIPE

Steps:

• Seed and chop peppers into fine pieces. *We use the Hamilton Beach Food Processor to complete this task in a fraction of the time.
• Place peppers in a large stockpot. Add the remaining ingredients and stir.
• Bring mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 5 minutes. Continue to stir to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
• Place in warm, sterilized pint jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe rim and add warm lid and finger tighten the ring. Place in hot water bath and process for 10 minutes (adjust for altitude).

HOT PEPPER MUSTARD

Steps:

• Wash peppers and place in blender with vinegar.
• Blend until peppers are ground fine.
• In a saucepan, combine pepper/vinegar combination with salt and water.
• Cook until peppers are tender.
• Strain through cheesecloth and return liquid to large boiler.
• In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, flour, turmeric, dry mustard and mustard.
• Stir well, making a paste.
• Add to boiler and cook over low heat until everything is blended well.
• Slowly bring up to a boil, stirring constantly.
• It will stick if it is not stirred constantly.
• It will thicken as soon as it gets to a boil.
• Turn off and dip into prepared jars.
• Be sure to wipe rim of jars completely clean with warm towel and place preheated lids on jars and tighten rings.
• I use the inversion method of sealing the lids which is to turn upside down for 5 minutes.
• Many think this is unsafe, so there is no harm in processing in a water bath for 5 to 10 minutes if it will make you feel a little more comfortable.
• Turn upright after 5 minutes and allow to cool completely before moving.
