Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/4 c Dry mustard -- Colemans
1/4 c White wine vinegar
1/3 c Dry white wine
1 tb Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
3 Egg yolks

You begin with dry mustard, adding vinegar for
tartness and wine for mellowness; then you cook with
egg yolks to give the spread its velvety smooth
texture. You can season the mildly flavored mustard as
suggested, or leave if plain.

For gift-giving, package the mustards in jars and
identify them with decorative labels. In top of a
double boiler, stir together mustard, vinegar, wine,
sugar, and salt. Let stand, uncovered, for 2 hours.
Beat egg yolks into mustard mixture. Place over
simmering water and cook, stirring with a wire whisk,
until mixture thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
Pour into small jars and let cool. Cover tightly and
refrigerate for up to a month. Makes about 1 cup.
