The holidays are upon us people, ready or not?!
And with that means yummy holiday baking!!
MMMmmmm
Last week (as I shared in an earlier post) we decided to go to SeaWorld for Thanksgiving.
That meant forgoing yummy Turkey Dinner and bypassing the chance to douse that yummy turkey in Hot Sweet Mustard :( sigh
But after getting home from THE BEST FAMILY VACATION EVER!!!!
I couldn't help it, I wanted to surprise Brett w/ Thanksgiving Dinner. And so I thought I would share a family
Years ago Brett's grandma gave me a few of his favorite recipes from his childhood.
His favorite being Colman's Hot Sweet Mustard.
He seriously BEGS for it every Thanksgiving and Christmas.
You know that feeling you get when you get your hands on a family recipe. You want to shout it out to the whole world, but yet you don't want to share with anyone because you don't want anyone else to gleam in your food happiness?
Or do you have a recipe that you feel is so unique, so unknown to the outside world; that you don't want anyone to get their grimy hands on it, in fear that the recipe will no longer be a secret?
Well this is how I feel about Colman's Hot Sweet Mustard!
So few people know how good it is on a Christmas ham or how many recipes you could actually use it with!

If you are a fan of Asian food and have been daring enough to try the "yellow stuff" that is always on the table in a tiny bowl, then LISTEN UP. Because your mind is about to be BLOWN!
Colman's Hot Sweet Mustard
What you will need:
- Colman’s Mustard Powder *must be Colman's, otherwise it just doesn't round-house-kick you in the face. I don't know why, I have tried making it with McCormicks mustard powder, but it just wasn't the same.
- Cornstarch
- Salt
- Water
- Sugar
- Vinegar
First Mix Mustard Powder w/ about 2 tsp water. Just enough to make a slight paste. Set Aside.
In a small saucepan mix Cornstarch, Sugar, Salt and remaining Water, (no heat needed yet) whisk until smooth.
Add Vinegar. Cook on LOW heat, stirring CONSTANTLY for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 5 minutes.
Add Mustard paste, whisk well. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.
