Hot Sweet German Style Mustard Recipes

SPICY GERMAN MUSTARD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the mustard seed and dry mustard.
• In a 1- to 2-quart stainless steel or nonreactive saucepan , combine the rest of the ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, over medium heat until the mixture is reduced by half, which will take 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pour the mixture into the bowl with the mustard seed. Let it stand, covered, at room temperature for 24 hours. You may have to add more vinegar to keep enough liquid in the mixture in order to adequately cover the seeds.
• Process the mixture in a blender or food processor until it is blended to the texture you like; this can take at least 3 or 4 minutes. You can leave it with some whole seeds remaining, or make a smoother paste.
• Scrape mustard into clean, dry jars. Cover them tightly and place in the refrigerator for at least one day but preferably three to allow the flavors to meld. (The mixture will continue to thicken. If it gets too thick after a few days, stir in additional vinegar.)
• Enjoy.

SWEET HOT MUSTARD

Steps:

• Mix dry mustard and vinegar and let stand overnight in a closed container. I use a glass mason jar and lid.
• The next day, in a glass saucepan beat egg; mix in sugar, salt and mustard mixture; cook over low heat, stirring constantly with wire whisk, until mixture thickens and just begins to bubble.
• Take off heat. Let cool approximately 30 minutes; then stir in miracle whip.
• Keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
• Will keep in the refrigerator for up to two months.
• Notes: This mustard is perfect with ham. Great sandwich spread. It also works well as a dip for sausage or pepperoni sticks at a party.
