Ingredients

  • 5.5 oz yellow mustard seeds
  • 1.7 oz brown mustard seeds
  • 2 ½ tablespoons coriander seeds
  • 3 organic oranges
  • 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 piece of fresh ginger about 5 cm/ 2 inches
  • 4 teaspoons salt
  • 1 ¼ cup apple or white wine vinegar

Instructions

  • Grind spices: Place the mustard and coriander seeds in a food processor and grind them finely. Alternatively, you can do this in a coffee grinder or using a mortar and pestle.
    5.5 oz yellow mustard seeds/ 150 g + 1.7 oz brown mustard seeds/ 50 g + 2 ½ tablespoons coriander seeds
  • Orange zest: Wash the oranges with hot water, dry them well, and grate the zest. Place it in a small bowl, add the sugar, and rub everything together with your fingers until it is well mixed.
    3 organic oranges + 6 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • Orange juice: Halve and juice the oranges. Pour the juice into a small pan, bring to a boil, and let cook until reduced to slightly less than ½ cup/ 100 ml. It took me about 20 minutes to achieve that, but it depends very much on the size of the pan, so keep checking.
  • Let the juice cool slightly, and sieve over the ground mustard seeds.
  • Combine: Add the orange zest-sugar mixture, grated ginger, salt, and vinegar, and mix everything very well together.
    1 piece of fresh ginger + 4 teaspoons salt + 1 ¼ cup apple or white wine vinegar/ 300 ml
  • Store: Transfer the mixture to a clean bowl and leave uncovered, in the kitchen, overnight. Transfer to clean, small jars and refrigerate.
