How to Make Crazy John's Spicy Mustard

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup yellow mustard seeds, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon celery seeds, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of water until a smooth paste forms. Transfer the mixture to a small saucepan.
  3. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Remove from heat and let the mustard cool completely to room temperature. This allows the flavors to fully develop.
  5. Transfer the cooled mustard to an airtight jar. Store in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to deepen before serving. Enjoy!
