Tips and variations
- For a milder profile, reduce the mustard seed and add a tablespoon of honey at the end.
-
A more pronounced “mustardiness” is achieved by adding a teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
-
For sandwiches, a great combination is with dill or chopped pickles.
-
The color holds thanks to turmeric, which also gives a slightly earthy aroma.
Serving
Serve with hot dogs, sausages, cold cuts, cold platters, burgers, and as a base for homemade potato salad. It’s also excellent in baked baguettes with ham and cheese.
Conclusion
Zucchini mustard is a versatile seasoning made from seasonal ingredients that you can make in one pot without unnecessary chemicals. A few basic steps, a proper reduction and sterilization ensure flavor and long shelf life. Keep a few jars on hand; in the fridge it disappears faster than you might expect.
