Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds
• 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon water
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.125 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the blueberries under cold water and drain them well.

Step 2

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh blueberries, mustard seeds, and water. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries begin to break down and release their juices.

Step 3

Using a spoon or potato masher, gently mash the blueberries in the saucepan to create a chunky mixture.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Simmer the mixture for an additional 3-5 minutes, stirring often, until it thickens slightly and the flavors meld together.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 7

Transfer the blueberry mustard to a blender or food processor and pulse a few times if you prefer a smoother texture. Otherwise, leave it as is for a more rustic finish.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more honey for sweetness or vinegar for tanginess.

Step 9

Once cooled, store the blueberry mustard in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
