Jack D’or Mustard

How to make Jack D’or Mustard Recipe -  Some of the best beers in the world are brewed in New England. One of our favorites, Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project’s Jack D’Or, is brewed in Somerville, Massachusetts. It’s a simple table beer, perfect to drink anytime. It gives this mustard a slightly spicy flavor, similar to horseradish. Beer and burgers are a perfect match in our book. Thank you, Pretty Things.

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon (3 g) mustard powder
1 teaspoon (3 g) garlic powder
3 tablespoons (39 g) sugar
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 g) kosher salt
1 cup (235 ml) cider vinegar
1 cup (176 g) brown mustard seeds
1 cup (235 ml) Jack D’Or (or other saison/farmhouse ale); save the rest for drinking

Method:
In a small saucepan set over high heat, bring the mustard powder, garlic powder, sugar, salt, and vinegar to a boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat.

Place the mustard seeds in a small, nonreactive bowl and pour the hot liquid over them. Add the beer and mix well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Place the mixture in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and purée, scraping the sides every 30 seconds, for about 3 minutes. The mustard will thicken.

Remove to a jar and refrigerate at least overnight. Mustard will keep, refrigerated, for up to 1 month. YIELD: 3 cups (750 g)
