Step 1

10-15 minutes

In a small bowl, combine mustard seed and dry mustard. In a 1- to 2-quart non-aluminum pan, combine remaining ingredients. Simmer uncovered on medium heat until reduced by half. Pour the mixture into the mustard mixture. Let the mixture soak at room temperature, adding additional vinegar if necessary to maintain enough liquid to cover seeds.

3-4 minutes

Process the soaked seeds and mixture in a blender or food processor until pureed to your desired texture. Some prefer whole seeds remaining, others a smooth paste.

Step 3
