Note

Storage: This homemade mustard must be stored in the refrigerator. It will keep for several weeks. Always use a clean spoon to scoop it out to prevent spoilage.

Consistency Tip: If the mustard becomes too thick upon cooling, you can thin it out with a teaspoon of water or vinegar when serving.

Safety: Ensure the eggs are beaten thoroughly before adding to the hot liquid to avoid scrambled egg bits in your mustard. Constant stirring is key to a smooth texture.

Variations: For a milder flavor, reduce the amount of dry mustard. For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or black pepper.
