Tried the Salad Cream, very good, although perhaps a bit too much vinegar, mind you it is still to be tried at fridge temperature! Might try the next lot with a bit less vinegar, a touch more salt and mustard!

Thanks though, can't wait to try the others.

All quantities can be changed to suit taste.

Even vinegar is different from bottle to bottle. so what is right one time need not be so the next.

I use cider vinegar for most pickles/relishes/sauces as it tends to be milder than malt vinegar.

Ballpark Mustard Sauce

Here's my take on Ballpark Mustard Sauce - Frenchs type stuff
Ingredients

40g mustard powder
15g plain flour
15g salt
3g turmeric
2g onion powder (could be doubled or more??)
15g honey
120ml water (try substituting for beer?)
100ml cider vinegar

Mix all ingredients, bring to the boil and simmer for ten mins. Bottle and leave for 24 hours before eating (otherwise mustard will be bitter).

Some may like the mustard more vinegary, some may like it more mustardy and some may like to play with the spicing, but this is the foundation.

Mustard and vinegar are both preservatives so it seems to keep for ages.

Dijon recipe incoming soon.

Mine's very similar. To be honest, I usually buy it, 'cos mustard powder/seeds are so expensive.
