Here is Blair Sawa’s famous Rye-Maple Mustard Recipe!

Ingredients :

• 3/4 cup of Red Mill Rye-Barrel Aged Maple Syrup
• 1/2 cup of Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp of mustard seeds
• 1/2 tsp pepper

Procedure :

Step 1: Bring the rye-maple syrup to a boil in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat and boil for about 6 minutes, or until the bubbles increase in size.

Step 2: Remove from the heat, let cool for about 3 minutes, then whisk in the Dijon mustard, the mustard seeds, and the pepper.

Step 3: Let cool completely before using. Enjoy! Great condiment to marinate chicken breast, or even a nice twist to your classic ham sandwich!

*Note: Rye-Maple Mustard stores well in a tightly sealed container in the fridge for at least a couple of weeks.
