Canadian mustard

Ingredients

250 ml (1 cup) yellow mustard seeds 250 ml (1 cup) sweet apple cider 250 ml (1 cup) cider vinegar 2 apples, unpeeled, cored and

chopped

60 ml (1/4 cup) honey 10 ml (2 tsp) salt

Directions

In a medium pot, stir together mustard seeds, apple cider and cider

vinegar. Cover tightly and rest at room temperature overnight. Add apples, honey and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until apple is very tender, 15 minutes

or so. Let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a blender or food processor. If you prefer wholegrain style mustard, pulse for just a few moments. For a smoother result, carry on until completely

pureed. Transfer to a clean jar, seal tightly and refrigerate. The mustard keeps indefinitely. Makes about 500 ml (2 cups).
