01
Step 1
Start by combining the yellow and brown mustard seeds in a medium bowl. Pour in the champagne, add the fresh dill, and splash in enough vinegar to just cover everything. Give it a good stir, then pop the bowl into the fridge and let it sit for about 24 hours to soak up all those flavors.

Step 2
After the seeds have soaked, transfer the mixture to a food processor. Add the garlic, brown sugar, a pinch of salt, and some freshly ground pepper. Pulse everything together until the mustard reaches the texture you like—whether that’s smooth or a bit chunky.

Step 3
Once it’s ready, spoon the mustard into clean, sterilized half-pint jars. Seal them up, and you’re all set to enjoy your homemade mustard!
Why you’ll love it
This recipe combines the tangy sharpness of mustard with the delicate bubbles of champagne and the fresh, herbal notes of dill. The result is a unique flavor profile that brightens any dish and adds a touch of elegance to your table.
How to serve
This sauce pairs wonderfully with grilled fish, roasted chicken, or steamed vegetables. It also makes a great accompaniment for sandwiches or as a dip for fresh bread.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Use within 3 days for the freshest taste, as the champagne’s bubbles will diminish over time. Stir gently before serving again.
