Inspired by Hank Shaw, I mixed up my first batch of mustard today. Got all low tech and ground up 3 tbls each of yellow mustard and brown mustard in the mortar, mixed that up with a little under 1/2 cup of ground mustard (the can didn't say what kind), 2 tsp of Kosher salt and 1/2 cup of cold water. I added one clove of garlic passed through the microplane and add 3 tbls of white wine vinegar after waiting 10 minutes. I probably should have ground up the mustard seeds separately since the yellow seeds were noticeably bigger than the brown and therefore seemed to get broken up much more than the brown. Live and learn. I have a feeling this won't be the last batch of mustard I'll be making.
