<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nMustard make yourself requires some patience<\/strong>, because only when the mustard self-made has completed sufficient maturation time, he also tastes good.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGet mustard flour or grind your own mustard seeds. For small amounts of mustard use a mortar<\/strong>. Larger quantities of mustard, if you need 50 grams of mustard flour or more according to the mustard recipe, grind electrically in a grinder or with a food processor. Do not allow the grind to heat up. Therefore, place the mustard seeds in the freezer two hours beforehand. Grinding material that is stuck to the sides and bottom must be scraped off from time to time during grinding. When grinding mix glycosides and myrosynase, so that later the sharpness is created.<\/li>Boil up the required liquid and let it warm to the touch. Cool. Sharp mustard is made with cold water<\/strong>.<\/li>Mix the mustard flour with the liquid,<\/strong> so that the fermentation begins. The active ingredients are dissolved out and allysenf\u00f6l and sinalbinsenf\u00f6l are formed, which are later responsible for the sharpness. You should allow at least two hours for fermentation. But it is better to leave the mass up to 36 hours covered in a cool place.<\/li>In the meantime, paint, chop or crush herbs and spices quite fine or press them out. The ingredients must be so small, and that they can later be easily incorporated into the mustard paste.<\/strong><\/li>Mix the ingredients into a homogeneous mass<\/strong>. To do this, you need to stir the mustard paste for some time with the electric hand mixer. While stirring, the mass should become firmer, because because the mustard flour is mixed with liquid, it swells.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\nThe mustard is now ready, but not yet edible<\/strong>, because it develops its aroma only after some time. How long the mustard must mature is usually indicated in the mustard recipe. Place the container with mustard in a cool, dark place. This is how mustard keeps the longest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>In 5 steps to homemade mustard<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe mustard presented here is a “beginner’s mustard”. It is, so to speak, the basic recipe that you can adapt according to your own wishes. The herb mustard mentioned here as an example is ideal for barbecue dishes. With the herbs you are very flexible. Process fresh herbs that are available to you depending on the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor homemade mustard we need 400 grams of mustard seeds. Depending on the variety used, your mustard will taste different. Also, the variety used determines the sharpness of the finished mustard. If you use mustard flour instead of mustard seeds, you save the subsequent pureeing of the mustard seeds.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nOnly mustard seeds, vinegar, water, salt and sugar you need for homemade mustard. You can also add herbs, such as wild garlic here, to your mustard and thereby refine your homemade mustard to your taste.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Step 1: Mustard seed<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe first step is to put 400 grams of mustard seeds in a tall container. You can crush the mustard seeds already in this step with a blender or leave them untreated for now, as shown here. It is also possible to use ready-made mustard flour instead of mustard seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 1: Place the mustard seeds in a large bowl.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Step 2: Salt and sugar<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nUse salt and sugar according to taste. As a basis, you can use two tablespoons of salt and two tablespoons of sugar. The sugar can be omitted without hesitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 2: Add salt and, if desired, sugar to the mustard seeds.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Step 3: Add vinegar<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFor a garden herb mustard use 0.25l of apple cider vinegar and 0.25l of must. However, you can also use vinegar and white wine for your mustard. Without alcohol, the mustard recipe also succeeds. Instead, just use 0.5l vinegar. Stir the mixture well and let it swell for at least 60 minutes in a warm place. It does not hurt to let your mass also swell overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 3: Now add the vinegar to the mixture. Stir the mixture and let the mustard seeds swell for at least an hour.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Step 4: Puree<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nNow the swollen mustard seeds are finely pureed. It is advisable to puree smaller quantities individually and then give the pre-pureed mass a final puree together with the herbs. Add water if your mixture is too thick. How finely you puree your mustard depends on your preferences. Still individual mustard seeds in the mustard gives your homemade mustard a personal touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\nStep 4: Now puree the mixture. Add herbs according to taste. If the mass is too thick, add a little more water as needed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
