How to Make French's Classic Yellow Mustard Copycat By Todd Wilbur

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup dry mustard powder, 1 cup white vinegar, 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, 1 tablespoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat, whisking constantly to prevent scorching.
  4. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mustard cool completely, still covered. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.
  6. Once cooled, transfer the mustard to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully develop.
