  1. RECIPE INGREDIENTS

    1/4 cup brown mustard seeds, ground

    5 tablespoons mustard powder

    1/3 cup water or beer

    3/4 cup cider vinegar

    2 tablespoons cold water

    2 large onions, sliced

    1 tablespoon honey

    1 teaspoon molasses

    2 cloves garlic, halved

    1/4 teaspoon each , cinnamon, allspice, cloves

    RECIPE METHOD

    In a bowl, combine the mustard seeds and mustard powder. Heat the 1/3
    cup of water and add with 1/4 cup of the vinegar. Let stand for 3 hours
    so the bitterness of the mustard disappears.

    Meanwhile, put all the remaining ingredients in a saucepan and boil for
    1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let stand for 1
    hour.

    Put everything into a food processor. . Process until it is the desired
    coarseness.

    Put in the top of a double boiler and cook over simmering water for 25
    minutes, or until thickened. Remove from heat.

    Ladle into a sterile jar. Cap tightly and label. The mustard will
    thicken as it cools. Store in the refrigerator for about 1 month.

    Store it for a month before eating, right?

    I've had mine for quite awhile, and I'm still using it. (You guys ...
    this mustard is fabulous! You must try it!)

    I love grainy, old time mustards and good mustards can be hard to find
    or expensive. I figured I could make my own and try funky
    combinations. And it is great fun to take homemade mustards to
    potlucks with big bags of good pretzels. Here in Wisconsin it is
    nice to see at brat and kraut with something other than neon yellow
    mustard slathered all over it. Now I make it and give it away cause
    how much mustard can you eat in one lifetime. It is very easy to
    make and very cheap. I get bulk mustard seeds for between $2.59 lb -
    $6.00 a pound. Have fun make your own mustard!

    Would you consider selling me some? If it's too much trouble,
    say so.

    Also, there is another matter I wanted to talk to you about. I believe
    I said I would do something at one time ... send money to your church,
    something along those lines? I was in no condition to go around making
    promises like that as I was so sick I probably fell asleep the minute I
    hit send.

    Let me know, okay? (smile)

    My dear Grandfather and his family from Amana Iowa always told me any
    brown beer that could hold a spoon upright in the frothy head had a
    good chance of being a good german beer. But then they said any beer a
    good german liked qualified!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    But feel free to carry on the debate. I can learn from you. Pam

    Ah! That sounds like a double bock I used to like! Yummy indeed! I'd be more
    specific but I can't spell German even close to correctly. It was a type of
    Monk's House Brew with a goat on the lable. Drank a lot of that at one time.
    Kind of the same viscosity as motor oil.

    I admit to not being German good or bad and am certainly not expert on the
    subject, but I seem to like the Northern beers.... like Dortmunder Union and
    Ritterbrau.

    I must watch for any possible debate as well. I must confess to hoping for a
    debate as I wish to learn too. Beer is good food!

    1 cup chopped celery
    1 cup chopped yellow onions
    2 tsp. peanut oil
    6 cups chicken stock
    1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
    1 tsp. flour
    salt and pepper to taste
    1/2 tsp. dry mustard

    1/8 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
    12 oz. beer
    parsley for garnish

    Sauté carrots, celery and onions in the oil until lightly browned. Bring the
    stock to a boil, add the vegetables, and simmer for 45 minutes.

    Dredge the cheese in the flour and mix into the soup, stirring constantly
    until the mixture thickens. Keep stirring often until you serve. Add the

    If desired, add sliced, cooked sausage with the final ingredients.
