Spicy Bavarian Beer Mustard Recipes

BEER MUSTARD

Steps:

• Soak brown and yellow mustard seeds with dark beer in a large bowl set in the refrigerator for 24 hours. If the seeds soak up the beer too quickly, add more beer.
• Transfer the soaked mustard seeds to a food processor along with garlic, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until desired consistency is reached.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes.
• Pack the mustard into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top.
• Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles.
• Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Refrigerate the jars of mustard for 2 weeks before using.

AIR-FRIED BRATWURST BITES WITH SPICY BEER MUSTARD

Steps:

• Combine beer, honey, turmeric, and allspice in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, until volume has reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Stir in mustard and let stand until ready to serve.
• Place sweet peppers and bratwurst chunks in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
• Cook in the air fryer at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), tossing once halfway through cooking, until peppers are tender and bratwurst edges are golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the brats should read 165 degrees F (75 degreed C). Work in batches if necessary.
• Serve warm with mustard sauce.

BEER MUSTARD

Steps:

• In a jar or glass container with an air-tight lid add the brown and yellow mustard seeds and the beer. Mix well, close the lid and refrigerate. Let seeds soak in the beer for a minimum of 12 hours, 24 recommended.
• Take the soaked mustard seeds out of the refrigerator and set aside. In a non-reactive container mix the vinegar, salt and sugar and stir until all solids are dissolved.
• Add the vinegar solution to the beer soaked mustard seeds. Mix well.
• Transfer the mixture to a food processor and process until you reach the desired consistency. For whole grain, coarse mustard texture about 30 sec to 1 minute. For pasty, smoother consistency continue to process until satisfied.
• Transfer the beer mustard to jars or glass containers with air tight lids and refrigerate. Flavors will continue to develop over time but you can consume the mustard as soon as a day after processing it.
• The mustard will keep well refrigerated for up to three months.

SPICY GERMAN MUSTARD

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the mustard seed and dry mustard.
• In a 1- to 2-quart stainless steel or nonreactive saucepan , combine the rest of the ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, over medium heat until the mixture is reduced by half, which will take 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pour the mixture into the bowl with the mustard seed. Let it stand, covered, at room temperature for 24 hours. You may have to add more vinegar to keep enough liquid in the mixture in order to adequately cover the seeds.
• Process the mixture in a blender or food processor until it is blended to the texture you like; this can take at least 3 or 4 minutes. You can leave it with some whole seeds remaining, or make a smoother paste.
• Scrape mustard into clean, dry jars. Cover them tightly and place in the refrigerator for at least one day but preferably three to allow the flavors to meld. (The mixture will continue to thicken. If it gets too thick after a few days, stir in additional vinegar.)
• Enjoy.
