Homemade Paleo Mustard

I was tweeting about my lunch yesterday and had a request for my Paleo mustard recipe :) So I thought I’d share! 

Soaking

All Soaked Up

Viola! 

Homemade Mustard

1 cup mustard seeds

½ cup vinegar

½ cup water

½ lemon, juiced

(Optional) sea salt & pepper, to taste

Take your mustard seeds and place them in a bowl.  Mix in the vinegar, water and lemon juice and let it soak (about 8 hours).  Once they’ve absorbed the liquid, I like to blend it in the food processor.  You might need to add a little extra vinegar in to get it to the desired consistency..but usually no more than a tablespoon.  If you like your mustard really yellow (I Do!)  add in some Turmeric. 

For a more traditional tasting mustard, add in 1/4 tsp Sea Salt and a drop of sugar. 

Love some honey mustard? 

Simply add in a little organic honey until it tastes like you like it :)

There you have it :) Mustard with no “secret” flavors or ingredients & 100% Paleo.  Your mustard will hit optimal flavor about a week after it’s made and is good to store for about a month.  If I seems like a bit much or you’re crunched for time, try Annie’s Naturals.  After looking at 4 different brands that claimed to be “organic”, “paleo”..Annie’s is the only one I’ve found to be 100% Paleo.
