  1. In the top of a double boiler, whisk together the mustard seeds, turmeric, vinegar, sugar, salt, and water until well combined.
  2. Place the double boiler over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the mustard has thickened to your desired consistency (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the additional turmeric for color, if desired. Let cool completely before storing.
  5. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld. Enjoy!
