Description

This classic Hot & Sweet Country Mustard captures the rustic charm of Midwest kitchens with its bold, tangy flavor profile. Unlike store-bought varieties, this homemade version offers a unique texture and depth that mellows beautifully over time. The combination of dry mustard, flour, sugar, and cider vinegar creates a condiment that is both spicy and sweet, making it an exceptional accompaniment to roasted meats, sandwiches, and charcuterie boards. While the initial taste may seem sharp, allowing it to rest for a few days transforms it into a smooth, sophisticated sauce. It is a versatile staple that elevates everyday dishes with its authentic, home-style character.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry mustard, flour, sugar, and salt until well combined.
  2. Slowly pour in the cider vinegar while stirring constantly to create a smooth, lump-free paste.
  3. Transfer the mixture into a clean, airtight glass jar.
  4. Seal the jar tightly and store it in a cool, dark place for 3 to 4 days to allow the flavors to mellow and develop.
  5. Stir well before serving.
