Self Sufficient Me is based on our small 3-acre property/homestead in SE Queensland Australia about 45kms north of Brisbane - the climate is subtropical (similar to Florida). I started Self Sufficient Me in 2011 as a blog website project where I document and write about backyard food growing, self-sufficiency, and urban farming in general. I love sharing my foodie and DIY adventures online so come along with me and let's get into it! Cheers, Mark :)

Handmaking mustard used to be less of a hassle than you think. They placed the soaked mustard seed in a wooden bowl and added a stone cannonball of about 10 cm diameter. Then you just let the bowl roll around the bowl until the mustard is to your liking. I worked it to the consistancy of your mustard in about half an hour. Not hard to do, just timeconsuming. By the way, your recipe is the same as what we in the Netherlands know as "Groninger mosterd" and is as old as the middle ages! Cheers, Dick

[@harryporter3531]

Man, you are such a bad influence on my schedule. Now I have to grow mustard.....lol, I love mustard 😉

[@aretonsenner6664]

Mustard is for gays. Sorry that’s Mayo

[@Drewsky840]

@@aretonsenner6664 what are you trying to say bud?

[@aretonsenner6664]

Drewsky88 lol not sure how high I was that day but mustard have been a lot

[@jerryp2341]

Adding some vinegar will help the taste and prolong the shelf life; adding a bit of salt will further prolong it; add some honey and you have honey mustard.

[@kenayala111]

Add a little fresh turmeric and you'll increase the food value and the color.

[@Selfsufficientme]

Yes that's a great idea! The yellow from the turmeric would also make it look better. Cheers :)

[@adreanlinerusher]

I think it looks pretty good, like grey poupon. I would make some thick and then some thin with fresh honey :). Add in some jalepeno or plabano as well and woohoo.

[@CaliforniaGardening]

Good point!

[@nicolep2424]

Absolutely! I wouldn't NOT put tumeric in mine

[@mytech6779]

The active compound in tumeric requires black pepper for the body to actually absorb, otherwise it just gets digested and broken down before getting to your blood.

[@waltersherwood6234]

I may not make mustard but I want a "self sufficient me" hat! Very cool looking

[@Selfsufficientme]

Hahaha... I got it for 10 bucks at our local Anaconda camping store and stuck a Self Sufficient Me sticker on the front. Thank you :)

[@tauceti8341]

Since mustard sprouted everywhere from the first year gardening i just use it as a green mulch. My hens love it too!

[@woodlandfairy5270]

You should see the beautiful patch of mustard flowers in my back yard. Looking forward to making this soon!

[@pieterandries7620]

Fantastic channel! My wife introduced me to your channel, and I will be honest and say it took me a while to get used to your style, but now I am absolutely hooked. I also like the fact that you are a southern hemisphere grower like myself, and I can directly relate to your seasonal changes, unlike most other KZbin channels. Keep up the good work! Cheers from South Africa.PS. I will definitely try this mustard recipe.

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thank you Pieter! I have to say my South African Brother-In-Law is a big influence on me as he has a spectacular vegetable garden (now lives here in Oz) and works in the horticultural industry. I've visited RSA a few times and one of my fondest memories was how plentiful and reasonably priced your avocados were to buy - strange I know, but when you love fruit and veg like me you remember these things lol... Yes, go ahead and try the mustard recipe or tweak it as you wish with different types of mustard and flavours etc. Cheers :)

[@sandraamiethyst667]

Thank you for all your hard work on your channel! I love your playful and humorous presentations! I had no idea how mustard was made. I'm going to add mustard plants to my garden now!

[@galesmith1490]

I really enjoy your channel Mark. I love the variety of information and topics. I'm especially fond of the way you show the process start to finish. Like in this video for instance you show how grow and gather the seed to make the mustard as well as sharing the recipe. I often wish people would talk more about how they preserve and utilize the crops they're growing. You truly give the essence of self-sufficiency in your approach. You do a great job!

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thank you Gale! I do enjoy sharing how basic and easy it is to create a preserve or condiment etc from garden to table. Sometimes we (I'm talking about me also) forget that many of the supermarket bottled/packaged foods are simple to replicate at home and also we can create heaps of different recipes to our taste through experimenting that can't be purchased anywhere else which often are better for us to eat. All the best :)

[@galesmith1490]

I agree, especially here in the states, we have this tendancy to think we don't have the time to make things at home. I'm going to expiriment with some garlic and chilles in my mustard. 😁

[@Skellocustoe]

Hi there Mark Thankyou for helping keeping me sane during the lockdown period here in Fremantle. I live in an apartment with no garden and I have been giving my mates and family so much knowledge about how to grow vegetables and how they should all have chooks etc Thankyou heaps as well as watching Gardening Australia for telling others to call me for any gardening advice. I am also pissed off with myself for when I had my own house for all those years that the only gardening I did was prune the roses and give flowers to the barmaids for good service 🤣👍Keep up the good educational work as it’s brilliant 👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺😎😎😎

[@CaliforniaGardening]

Nice video mate! The mustard looks great!!

[@sharongodbout9014]

Love Love Love grainy mustard! Way easy, Thank you Mark!! :-)

[@Selfsufficientme]

Glad you liked it Sharon! :)

[@vink6163]

Love the sugar-free alternative, great stuff!

[@julesl6910]

Great video! Your wife must be a happy lady. I'm a big proponent of mustard varieties, and there are literally hundreds of very unique types. There are spinach leaf ones that taste like spinach, spicy ones that will burn your tongue like a good pepper sauce, sweet ones, salad leaves, mizuna types, you name it. Highly nutritious. Young plants provide tender salad greens (not spicy), then as they get older you get good collard-like leaves good for stir frys or pickling. Then when the plant goes to seed you can use them directly in cooking (indian food comes to mind), or prepare mustard. They cross pollinate quickly so that in a few seasons you can make your own custom varieties. They plant their own new seeds so you literally just throw some seeds in your garden and that's it for the rest of your life. GROW MUSTARD GREENS

[@ilovecharleston]

Happy I stumbled onto this video! We grew mustard, wanting to save the seeds at the end of the season for mustard, but the seeds were black and we thought they needed to be yellow or brown. I've not been able to find the lighter colored seed, but you've just shown me how to make mustard with the black seed. Thank you!

[@peachesandapril]

Thank you! I have wanted to make my own mustard for ages!! You have re inspired me to do it.

[@xavierdireen687]

This video inspired me a few months ago to grow my own mustard eventually to make mustard condiment. My plants are already over half a meter tall in just those few months! Can't wait and thanks heaps!

[@johnboleyjr.1698]

I just made a batch of mustard using both yellow and black mustard seeds. It has Honey, Pink Himalayan Salt, and Dill in it. It tastes amazing, though it still needs to mellow a bit. Perfect for dipping sausages and cheese into. Or cooking Pork or Chicken marinated or crusted with the Mustard. Edit: I forgot to mention that I put some homemade Ginger paste in as well.

[@10tornado34]

You made my mouth water.

[@cbryce9243]

Homemade mustard, who'd'a thunk! YUM!! Thank you! Can't wait to grow it now!

[@lisabooker6405]

This was great Mark. Really appreciate it. Love how creative you are in the kitchen. Best wishes to you and yours. ~Lisa

[@FrancisRoyCA]

SOLD! I'm so glad that you took up my earlier suggestion. I don't grow things that I don't know how to use. Now I know how to use mustard. Thank you!

[@createthiscom]

I love mustard. This looks really easy. I can't wait to try it.

[@plants4ever48]

So glad I found your channel!

[@ipeefreely2364]

I love stone ground mustard. They also make amazing greens.

[@kayleenwest]

Yum! I don’t eat sugar so this is right up my alley. Going to plant some yellow mustard seed and see what happens. Hello from Melbourne!

[@urbanrat84]

I wouldn't have thought to grow my own mustard, keen to plant them now

[@HeatherDuffy1313]

Love this. You answered questions I didn't know I had yet

[@GeneracionGoshen777]

You are the man!! God bless you for all the good information that you are sharing💪thanks from Pennsylvania

[@danandkiko]

Definitely going to do that simple recipe! Just started planting mustard. Thanks!

[@hoperules8874]

So cool! So helpful! Can't wait to sow the seeds!

[@LoudPackorDeaf]

Thanks for showing the whole process

[@thomasjunk5434]

Thanks! I harvested my mustard and I'm trying it right now!

[@Freakontheway]

Hey Mark, from what you describe of the taste, and the way your mustard looks, it reminds me of our Dutch 'Groninger Mosterd'! Would definitely love to make that myself, so thank you for sharing this.

[@simonavecchiotti6039]

Omg! I was looking for recepies of mustard and I found you, with this aussie accent that it m miss me, after spending 2 years in Sydney in 2000, you brought me to those days ❤ tank you for the recepies.

[@trevorbyron8181]

Nice idea...great for holistic living. Growing your own mustard...have to give it a try

[@isabellaabruzzi9611]

G'day, Mark. I just went out and bought mustard plants because of this video. Can't wait to try this! 😊

[@joefallon7288]

Great video Mark, we’ve just processed down all of our white mustard seeds and we’re going to try your recipe. Thanks for sharing mate!

[@McDowallManor]

Great clip mate. It's rare that I see something that I've never even thought about! Thank you.

[@crownrizla3168]

Thank you from UK. God bless.

[@thegrimjeeper3427]

Great show I'm now excited to get and grow mustard

Wow, you learn a new thing every day. I had no idea it was this easy to make mustard. In fact, I think I'm gonna give this a go. Time to order some seeds. Thank you, Mark.

[@50shadesofgreen]

awesome job mark, my dad would love this as he really enjoyed different mustards

[@VerucaPumpkin]

I love mustard. I can't wait to grow it!

[@sherrywebb1125]

I love your channel! I will be trying this recipe this year. It looks fabulous! My great grand parents grew their own mustard. Now I am going to have to grow some just so I can make my own mustard! Thank you for all of your video's!

[@tristanloteryman4023]

Thanks for the mustard recipe Marc!

[@jeanskilling708]

Thank you , love the mustard.

[@masterschroder1269]

I had no idea that that's how you could make mustard. Amazing video.

[@juanitaschlink2028]

A good tip on separating the seed from the chaff, my husband taught me with my nigella seeds. Put it all in a bowl with most of the chaff already separated (just rub through your palms) and gently, GENTLY, blow on it while you swirl the bowl around. The vast majority of the seeds will stay in the bowl and the chaff will float out. So handy and satisfying.

[@kflan3342]

Thanks for the video! I am going to have to see what mustard plants will grow and produce seed here in Texas.

[@jonzo_]

Great video! Cheers for sharing.

[@corymiller9854]

Ty for this recipe. I have been using sprouted seed teas on my garden and much to my surprise I now have lots of mustard plants throughout my garden. Mine have broad leaves but I live in Canada. It is mustard making time thanks again:]

[@Sleepless_Sam]

Thanks for breaking down the process. We have so much wild mustard here its considered a fire hazard, so I think I'll help myself this spring.

[@GeeaRCee]

Oh goodness. I’m salivating.

[@ScanMy2DBarcode]

Now I want to grow some mustard to make my own! Thanks!

[@YankeeLivn]

Sounds good Mark I might just try that.

[@timfay12]

Wicked awesome vlog! Can’t wait for my own special mustard!

[@adamfink5294]

Wow, that look great! Just a beginner here, but I'm gonna start growing mustard from now on!

[@ivyclark70]

Thanks Mark! Great tip! We love mustard but never think to grow or make our own.

Thank you, great video, very informative

[@only-vans]

I love mustard. Sprouts and shoots. Never grown them proper yet. Will now : )

[@melanieallen3655]

Love this!!

[@Birodalom1]

It took years for me to realize: the strange-looking bush in the "no man's land" part of my garden is actually a fabulous mustard-jungle! What an amazing plant: salad, spice and medicine in one package!

[@Drewsky840]

That bread you made your sandwich with looks really good! I can't wait to live in a house where I can have my own garden!

Nothing beats fresh ground mustard sauce

[@jwpallett]

That was very good

[@RobinEsch]

Thanks so much for this video! I can't wait to grow this in my garden and start making my own mustard. Also thanks for pointing out how much sugar can be in store bought mustards (and most foods).

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thanks Robin! It's very easy to do so best of luck I'm sure you will enjoy making your own mustard and tweaking it to your particular taste. Yes, I'm not a "sugar nazi" but I do think we need to be careful about unknowingly consuming too much "hidden sugar" daily so if I can make something that doesn't really need sugar I will. Cheers :)

[@melodieeab]

I bought a 5 lb bag of yellow mustard seed from a restaurant supply store for about $4. I am planning on growing my own mustard, but I use a lot for pickling so I already had a lot on hand.

[@Wolfsatz]

Fantastic! Now I want to grow Mustard

[@hemera73]

Have I never left a comment on this amazing channel!? Mustard been because the info is so good I just run out to apply it! Thanks a Lot! "buggered"!

[@Selfsufficientme]

Thank you for watching and glad you enjoyed the video! :)

[@indiefan23]

I just used your recipe with a few alternations after forgetting the seeds letting them soak/ferment for a week or two. Holy moly is it fantastic. Next year I am planting so much mustard it's not going to be funny. Mostly used Dragon Tongue Mustard seeds. The zing in the taste is just amazing.

[@aamir122a]

That last section about making mustard paste was really good.

[@RichardAStonemasonNOTfreemason]

Howdy Mark. Was searching for a 'making mustard recipe' and this one popped up. Just had to give it a watch, seeing as it's from you. i'm pleased i did. Super easy recipe with the bonus of how to grow and harvest it. 11/10 ps. Wot No Dad Jokes? Blessings and Love from the UK.
