Patience is indeed a virtue as mustard must be made four weeks before using it to allow the flavors to blend and soothe. This mustard is well worth the wait and can be used as the base for any number of sauces or simply served with a slice of ham or a pork chop. This should be made in non-reactive, non-aluminum, saucepans.
