Ingredients

  • ½ cup Coleman's dry mustard
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2½ tablespoons potato starch (I often substitute corn starch for potato starch)
  • ½ cup cream
  • 1 – 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Directions

1

Mix the dry ingredients together and sift into a heavy bottomed kettle.

2

Add the cream and mix well.

3

Heat over a medium heat, stirring and scraping the bottom constantly until it bubbles and starts to thicken.

4

Take the pan off the heat and add at least a tablespoon of vinegar.

5

You can add more if you like, the vinegar makes the mustard more sour and a thinner consistency.

6

Put the mustard in a bottle while warm.

7

Keep in the mustard in the refrigerator.

8

Warning: do not let the sauce boil because the potato (or corn) starch will thicken and become like glue!
