- ½ cup yellow mustard seeds (can substitute with brown mustard seeds for a spicier kick)
- ½ cup white wine vinegar (can switch to apple cider vinegar for a sweeter touch)
- 1 tablespoon sea salt (regular table salt works too, but use less)
- 2 tablespoons honey (can substitute with agave syrup or brown sugar)
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder (recommended for depth, can be left out)
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes (adjust to taste or omit for milder flavor)
- ¼ cup finely minced shallots (can replace with green onions or red onions)
- Soak the mustard seeds in enough water to cover them completely for 12 to 24 hours.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the soaked mustard seeds, white wine vinegar, sea salt, honey, mustard powder, and red pepper flakes.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer, cooking for approximately 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat, stir in the finely minced shallots and additional white wine vinegar if desired.
- Transfer the mixture to a clean glass jar and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before enjoying.
