Ingredients
  

  • 1 teaspoon Mustard Powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon Salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon White Pepper
  • ½ Vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon Oil
  • ⅛ teaspoon Turmeric Powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoon Water

Instructions
 

  • Ready to make the Chinese hot mustard from scratch? Here’s what you’ll need to do.
  • In a small bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.
  • Add the vinegar and give it a good mix.
  • Taste and adjust the consistency. If you want the sauce thinner, add some water and stir.

Notes

  • I would recommend using cold water to make the Chinese hot mustard from scratch. Doing this helps activate the enzymes that lend the sauce its characteristic heat and flavor. 
  • If you want the mustard to have a spicier taste and flavor, use less of the vinegar, and more of the mustard powder and pepper. 
  • Authentic Chinese hot mustard is typically made using brown mustard seeds, which have a more intense pungent flavor - resembling that horseradish-like heat and are hotter than yellow mustard seeds. 
  • If you’re looking for authentic flavors, use brown mustard powder, or at least a mix of equal parts of both the mustards.
