For those times when you need a little Dijon for a recipe or a couple of sandwiches.
Dijon Mustard Substitute
1 tablespoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon water 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar (or 1/2 white wine, 1/2 white vinegar) 1 tablespoon mayonnaise 1 pinch sugar
Mix all ingredients.
Yield: 2 Tablespoons
Notes: For Chinese Mustard for dipping, drizzle a little sesame oil into the Dijon Mustard & mix well.

Oh this is good. Jim doesn't eat mustard, and I only use it on a rare occasion. This might be a lot better than buying it.

Everybody here prefers regular yellow mustard, so I don't buy Dijon. Then I wanted to make classic spinach salad and the dressing recipe called for Dijon, so I found this recipe online. It worked great! Some of us even liked it plain, so I am thinking about making a bigger batch to have in the fridge. If I can make it this good, no sense in buying it.

Did you use dry or just regular mustard? I'm thinking 1/2 tsp white vinegar, the mayo, salt and regular mustard shouldn't be to runny but still have that little bit of bite to it.

I used dry mustard. I thought the prepared might make it too sour. I would try it if I didn't have a ton of dry mustard (I keep a lot because I use it in making mayonnaise and salad dressings)

We have a special (inappropriate!!!) name for yellow mustard at my house!!!
I have started making small jars of mustard seed (whole or cracked work) soaked in kombucha - that is really good too. I am thinking this recipe, mixed with a bit of the whole grains in kombucha would make a good spread or add in to salade dressing too.
