Hello, Darlings
What a great weekend we had weather wise. Wouldn't it be great if the weather was like this year round? Too bad, it's not, and more of the oppressive heat and smothering humility is on the horizon. Therefore, enjoy this pleasant weather while it is here, because like that ice cream cone you're eating, it won't last long.

Homemade Easy To Make German Mustard
Keep in mind that horseradish has a strong kick, so when mixing these powders in the blender, mix the yellow powder and the water to the desire smoothness first, and then add the horseradish powder a little at a time until you reach your desired taste. You might have to add more water to keep it thick and smooth.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup dry yellow mustard powder
- 1/4 cup dry Horseradish powder
- 1 cup of warm water
Directions
- Mix with a small blender the yellow mustard and dry horseradish powders with only enough water for the desired thickness and smoothness.
- Add mixed mustard to a 4 ounce or 8 ounce mason jar. Seal tightly; refrigerate. Good up to 6 months.
I hope you enjoy it.
Until next time,
