Hot Habanero Mustard Recipes

HOMEMADE SPICY MUSTARD RECIPE

Steps:

• To a large mixing bowl, add mustard seeds with vinegar and beer. Mix well. Pour into a large jar and seal.
• Set the jar in a dry place overnight to let the seeds absorb the liquid, at least 12 hours. You will notice the seeds grow larger, but the mixture still looks like mustard seeds floating in liquid.
• Stir in the habanero peppers and salt. Mix well.
• Add to a food processor and process to your personal tastes. You can process only a little to keep most of the seeds, or go to town and really mix it together. I processed mine to about 80 percent, keeping a few seeds in there.
• Set the mustard into a sterilized jar and serve! The flavors will keep developing as time goes by.

HOT HABANERO MUSTARD

Steps:

• 1. First cut up your habanero peppers, you want to use the seeds too. (I usually get my hubby to do this part for me as I have contacts). Or you can use gloves.
• 2. Combine the vinegar, water, salt and peppers and simmer on medium heat until the peppers are tender. Usually takes about 6 to 7 minutes. The fumes will eventually get to you and you will start to cough so be very careful.
• 3. While the peppers are cooking, in a separate bowl combine your sugar, flour, dry mustard and the turmeric and mix well and then add your mustard to the mix.
• 4. Add the mustard mixture to the pepper mixture and mix well, stirring frequently until thicken.
• 5. Spoon the hot mixture into 8 sterilized hot 1/2 pint jars leaving 1/2 inch head space. Seal with prepared lids, according to their instructions, I place my lids and rings in a saucepan, add water, and heat the water up, not to a boil, you just want them warm and remove from heat. Process jars in a hot water bath for 5 minutes.

HOT PEPPER MUSTARD

Steps:

• Wash peppers and place in blender with vinegar.
• Blend until peppers are ground fine.
• In a saucepan, combine pepper/vinegar combination with salt and water.
• Cook until peppers are tender.
• Strain through cheesecloth and return liquid to large boiler.
• In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, flour, turmeric, dry mustard and mustard.
• Stir well, making a paste.
• Add to boiler and cook over low heat until everything is blended well.
• Slowly bring up to a boil, stirring constantly.
• It will stick if it is not stirred constantly.
• It will thicken as soon as it gets to a boil.
• Turn off and dip into prepared jars.
• Be sure to wipe rim of jars completely clean with warm towel and place preheated lids on jars and tighten rings.
• I use the inversion method of sealing the lids which is to turn upside down for 5 minutes.
• Many think this is unsafe, so there is no harm in processing in a water bath for 5 to 10 minutes if it will make you feel a little more comfortable.
• Turn upright after 5 minutes and allow to cool completely before moving.
