I love mustard. But unfortunately storebought mustard contains vinegar. And on a Medical Medium diet, that is best avoided. But you can easily make it yourself and substitute the vinegar for lemon juice.

Basic mustard recipe

I just took a recipe for ‘normal’ mustard. For this recipe you can add lemon juice to mustard seeds. In the same ration (in volume). I normally make a small batch with a 1/3 cup of seeds. You probably need to add just a little water. Then some kurkuma for colour and some salt. And blend. That’s it!

Play with it

To this basic mustard you can add extra vierge olive oil to make it more creamy. Of course not if you want to be as fatfree as possible. For creamy and a bit sweet you can add honey. For a caramel like sweetness add maple syrup or coconut blossom sugar. Sage and rosemary are herbs that combine well. By the way, so does dill, but that is best added separately to whatever you’re gonna make with the mustard.
