Preparation time: 2 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
Techniques: Mixing, bringing to boil, cooling

Ingredients

Method
  1. Mix mustard powder, cricket powder and sugar in a kettle, all though don’t heat up the mixture yet. Mixing up the cold ingredients prevents the mustard from clotting.
  2. Add the cream in small portions while mixing, and then add the eggs. When the mixture is even, start the heating in low temperature.
  3. When the mixture is warmed up, turn up the heat and bring to boiling point. Don’t boil the mixture so the egg doesn’t start clotting.
  4. Lift the kettle of the stove and let it cool down for a while.
  5. Add the vinegar and add a bit of oil to increase the glaze if you will.
  6. Drain the mustard to a washed and boiled glass jar and let it cool down in a room temperature. The mustard in this stage is quite runny but it will thicken while cooling down.
  7. Place it in the fridge when it’s cold.
Recommendations

Boil the glass jar in water for couple minutes to kill bacteria and to make mustard remain longer.
