Yeah, that's right. RED mustard. It's cranberry mustard from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving book.
This was today's project while waiting for the building maintenance guy to come by and fix our broken oven. This is now the last thing the current oven/stove will ever produce. Apparently all the wiring in back is melted together in a giant nasty electrical mess. Great... At least we didn't burn the building down. A new oven is being ordered and should be installed tomorrow.
I bought a similar product a while back, 'wichcraft cranberry-apricot chutney. It retails for a comical $14.oo, but I got it on sale after the holidays for about $3.50. I'm thinking my homemade version is better. The 'wichcraft is cloyingly sweet and the mustard seeds aren't ground up so they get stuck in your teeth. My version is a lot less sweet and the allspice makes it more savory.
Left: The allspice, ground mustard, and sugar waiting to go into the simmering pot of cranberry (leftover and frozen from Thanksgiving) and ground mustard seeds.
I'm planning on using it on turkey sandwiches as a combination cranberry sauce/mustard deal.
