Homemade Whole Grain Mustard

Every year, at the end of winter, the earth beneath the dormant local vineyards explodes in a bright yellow-golden color of Mustard. This is one of the first signs that Spring is just around the corner. To bring that feeling of Spring inside, we’re celebrating not only the Mustard in bloom, but the actual condiment!  So pull together your favorite mustard (or two) and create a delicious platter or board that celebrates the upcoming start of Spring, or you can easily try making your own mustard at home, with this simple recipe!
