Champagne Mustard and Lemon Garlic Aioli from Scratch!

Welcome everyone to another episode of Nikoli's Kitchen! This week I talk about how Yoga has helped to center me and help me in my life and we've got more announcements about the Livestream for the Cure, including a challenge I hope you'll join me in. In the back half of the show it's all about condiments- specifically mustard and aioli! I had never made either one before I started this show, and I am extremely excited to share my progress with them. I apologize again for the lateness of the episode this week! My recording schedule is crazy right now as is my life so I'm squeezing it in where I can. Thank you all so much for coming on this journey with me.

Featured Recipes for this Episode

Lemon Garlic Aioli

4 egg yolks
1/4 cup diced red onion
2 cloves garlic
2 T dijon mustard
Juice of 2 lemons
Cracked black pepper to taste
Salt to taste
1-1/2 c olive oil

Add all ingredients but for the olive oil to a food processor and pulse to combine.
Turn food processor on and drizzle in olive oil slowly 1/2 c at a time.
Run food processor until you hit the desired consistency.

 

Champagne Mustard

6 T mustard seeds
1/3 c vinegar (NOT apple-cider vinegar)
1/3 c wine or champagne (or water, if you want it N/A)
1/2 t whole peppercorns
2 T finely diced shallots or red onion
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
3/4 t coarse sea salt
1/2 t ground turmeric

~| Please keep in mind that your mileage is going to vary greatly based on exactly your combination of mustard seeds. I've found that all yellow seeds or a very small amount of brown/black goes best in the champagne mustard because otherwise you end up muting the subtle flavors in the champagne with the overpowering horseradish-y mustard taste. |~

Use a spice grinder to grind up your mustard seeds, peppercorns, and salt if desired (at the very least your S&P if you want whole grain mustard).
Add seeds, salt, and pepper to a jar or other container.
Add shallots/onion and garlic as well as turmeric. 
Add vinegar and wine/water.
Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight (the seeds will need to soak).
Add the contents of the jar to a food processor and pulse until combined to the desired consistency.
Refrigerate.
