Oh, this is absolutely one of the easiest recipes I know.
Two ingredients : Dry Mustard and Water

Remember a little goes a long way.

Take a couple teaspoons of powdered yellow mustard in a shallow bowl. Add water about 1/4 tsp tsp at a time. The "secret" is in the stirring! Stir with the bottom of a spoon sort of macerating it as you blend the water in. The more you stir the paste the hotter it becomes. Be careful not to add too much water.

That's it!

My DH loves that hot mustard from the Chinese place. I will have to try this for him.

This brings back memories of my childhood when my Dad would make this for the Irish corned beef dinner. It was so hot it would burn your mouth but oh so good. Thanks for reminding me I can make it myself at home.

Oooookay!!! YUM. The chinese restaurant I used to go to (while growing up) makes a shrimp sauce. NOT the red sauce you see now...but almost a combination of mustard and red sauce. Maybe THIS will be the "secret ingredient"!!!!! Thanks!

Huh!!! My Mom use to make a cataplast, or hot compress, for the chest with this if you had bronchitis or just a really bad chest cold!!! Brings back so many memories, but I never dreamt of eating the stuff.. : )

LOL - how true! I had forgotten all about it! My mom called it a mustard plaster - how I hated it! But it sure did work!
