Homemade Mustard

Homemade Bavarian Mustard

I love making food gifts for the holidays. I often make cookies or other baked goods. But not everyone wants sweets. For those friends and family, I often make them homemade mustard. I have included recipes for 5 of my favorite mustards.

I wasn’t a big fan of mustard, when I was a kid. I am now. I enjoy using all types of mustard in all sorts of dishes, not just on hot dogs.

Mustard is great on sandwiches and sausages. It is a versatile  ingredient for salads, salad dressings, marinades and all sorts of sauces.  I lean towards spicy brown mustard myself.

I also enjoy making my own mustard. That way, I can tweak the seasonings.

So here are five of my favorite homemade mustard recipes. If you never made mustard before- you might want to try. It is easy, and fun. Four of them are stored in the fridge- and will keep for months. For gift-giving, look for decorative jars or crocks to put them in. The fifth recipe is canned, so 4 ounce canning jars are required, but it doesn’t have to be stored in the fridge.
