Whiskey mustard
50 g yellow mustard seed
250 g brown mustard seeds
600 ml apple cider vinegar
270 ml whiskey (bourbon)
350 ml honey
16 tbsp water
4 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon curcuma
Grind the mustard seeds in a mortar or coffee or nut grinder, not too finely. When grinding with electric mills, be careful that the seed does not get too hot.
Mix the ground seeds with water,leave to swell for 30 minutes.
Bring the vinegar to the boil briefly and add to the mustard with the spices, whiskey and honey. Using a hand blender, blend until thick and uniform. (Heat see above!) If the mixture is too liquid, thicken a little with honey. Cover and let the mustard steep for 12 hours. Fill the mustard into sterile jars. Do not boil down – this destroys the flavors! Then let the mustard mature in the jar for 3 weeks in a cool and dark place.
