Yellow Mustard Recipe - French's Clone

Yellow Mustard Recipe - French's Clone

This is a recipe that I found at Grouprecipes.com and it was posted by "Tuilelaith."

Ingredients (T = tablespoon; t = teaspoon):

• 4 T ground yellow mustard
• 1/2 t Wondra flour (to thicken)
• 3/8 t salt
• 1/8 t turmeric
• pinch of garlic powder
• pinch of paprika
• 1/4 c water
• 3 T distilled white vinegar

Directions:

• Mix all dry ingredients together in a small sauce pan.
• Whisk in water and vinegar until the mixture is smooth.
• Heat mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it boils.
• After it begins to boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes (I simmer mine for 7.5 minutes).
• Remove pan from heat and leave uncovered for 1 minute.
• Then cover pan and let the mustard cool.
• Put mustard in a covered container and store refrigerated

Yield:  1/4 cup

The Wondra flour is used to thicken the mixture.  You probably could use all purpose flour if that's all you had and you probably wouldn't notice a difference in the taste.  The Wondra won't clump as easily as all-purpose flour, making it a more convenient thickening agent.
