Bring 1/2c white vinegar, 1tsp red pepper flakes, and a few cloves of garlic to a boil. Remove from heat and let sit for 30 minutes.
These are mustard seeds. Look for them in your bulk spice section or buy them in the wildly overpriced tins like a sucker. I decided to lightly toast them before I ground them up which ended up being a great idea. Put them in a pan over medium to medium-low heat. Wait until they start popping and immediately pour them out of the pan.
This is what they should look like now. Grind them up as best you can. Strain the vinegar into the ground mustard seed, heat it, remove it and let it sit for 30 minutes.
Mix 2.5tbl powdered mustard, 2tbl prepared horseradish, 2tbl light corn syrup, 1tsp Old Bay, 1tsp cayenne, 1tsp allspice, 1tsp kosher salt, and 1tsp sugar. Pour your mustard vinegar in and whisk it up.
Their recipe calls for you to heat seal this shit and let it sit for 4 weeks before using. Whatever. I let it sit a day in the fridge and it tastes great, despite looking like dog barf. I would highly suggest making this. Eat it.

How interesting you made this post. Lovely.
Although I am not a mustard lover, my husband likes it and perhaps if I tried making some myself, I might learn to like it more.
Yes...very interesting
That looks exactly like the same shit I use for an exfoliant facial scrub.
You rub mustard on your face?
Yeah, I liked that the first time I tried it . . at Popeye's. In a little pre-packaged container. Mardi Gras mustard. Skip the multi-step preparation and hit the drive-thru!
Did I miss the part about how much mustard seed to purchase, toast, grind, and soak? A thimble-full, a pound, a shovel-full...?
(There, I've removed all doubt!)
Oops. 1/2c.
