How To Use Yellow Mustard Seeds 

Yellow mustard seeds are probably the most recognizable spice used to make pickles. They are generally the baseline ingredient in a variety of delicious mustards as well. Homemade Horseradish Mustard & Hot Moonshine Mustard feature this versatile spice beautifully. 

The Technique

 Preparing wonderful handcrafted mustards begin by soaking yellow & brown, if using, mustard seeds in either spirits, vinegar or water in order to soften then for the blending procedure. Once this important task has been achieved, homemade mustards come together rather quickly, in less than about five minutes.
