English Beer Mustard Recipes

Steps:

• In a glass or pottery bowl, blend the mustard seed, mustard powder and water.
• Let stand for twenty minutes.
• Add the remaining ingredients, then store in the refrigerator, covered, for 48 hours.
• The mustard will seem watery at first but will'set'.
• Do not jar the mustard for at least 2 days, to let the consistency stabilize.
• Stir well.

Steps:

• In a small, microwave-proof bowl whisk together the dry mustard, brown sugar, salt, turmeric, paprika and garlic powder. In a separate container, combine the pickle juice, water and cider vinegar and have standing by. Place the mustard seed into a spice grinder and grind for a minimum of 1 minute, stopping to pulse occasionally. Once ground, immediately add the mustard to the bowl with the dry ingredients and add the liquid mixture. Whisk to combine. Place the bowl into the microwave and heat on high for 1 minute. Remove from the microwave and puree with a stick blender for 1 minute. Pour into a glass jar or container and allow to cool uncovered. Once cool, cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• In a small bowl combine the mustard seeds, lager, and malt vinegar. Cover and soak overnight.
• Strain the liquid and reserve in a separate container. Place the soaked seeds in a food processor and pulse 7 to 8 times. In a double boiler, place the cracked seeds and add the strained liquid, allspice, pepper, salt, sugar, dry mustard, garlic, and horseradish. Cook about 90 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and let cool, then refrigerate.

Steps:

• In a non-reactive container, combine mustard seeds with beer and vinegar. Let sit 48 hours. Check periodically to make sure seeds are covered by liquid; add more if necessary.
• Transfer seeds and liquid to a food processor. Add remaining ingredients. Process until creamy, four to six minutes.
• Transfer to jars. Allow mustard to mature, 3 to 4 weeks, before serving.

Steps:

• Toast the mustard seeds in a small dry pan (I use a cast iron pan) over medium heat, shaking occasionally, until the seeds start to pop. Remove from heat and tip the seeds into a mortar and pestle and crush them a few times. (If you don't have a mortar and pestle, tip them into a bowl and use the back of a spoon to crush them).
• In a glass or pottery bowl, blend the crushed mustard seeds, mustard powder and water thoroughly and let stand for 20 minutes. (You can drink the remaining beer while you're waiting!).
• Add the cayenne pepper, tumeric powder and salt. Stir to combine, then add the honey, vinegar and beer.
• If the mixture seems too thin, add up to one more tablespoon of mustard powder to help thicken it.
• Pour mustard into a small jar, cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 days before using to let the flavors combine.
• Enjoy!

• PLACE mustard seeds and remaining liquid in a food processor or blender. Process until chopped and slightly grainy.
• TRANSFER mixture to a large saucepan. Whisk in water, vinegar, brown sugar, dry mustard and onion powder. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until volume is reduced by a third, about 15 minutes.
• LADLE hot mustard into hot jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe rim. Center hot lid on jar. Apply band and adjust until fit is fingertip tight.
• PROCESS in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Remove jars and cool. Check lids for seal after 24 hours. Lid should not flex up and down when center is pressed.
