In Westphalia, a historic region of northwest Germany, Schwerter Senfmühle has been making mustards the traditional way since 1923. The Honey Mustard is wonderfully smooth while retaining a subtle texture. That’s because Schwerter slowly cold-grinds yellow and brown mustard seeds in two old stone mills; this process helps preserve the natural active ingredients and brings forward tangy-sweet notes with a punch of extra heat. Enjoy it the German way with sausages or brotzeit; use it as a binder for fish and meat rubs or simply keep the crock on the counter for sandwiches and more.

Schwerter Senfmühle is one of four historic mustard mills still operating in Germany. They follow a secret recipe that’s been passed down since 1845. Each mustard is traditionally blended with salt, vinegar, honey and water—there are no artificial sweeteners or preservatives. The Honey Mustard is milled fresh and packaged in a charming ceramic crock exclusively for Milk Street.

How to Use: This mustard’s tangy sweetness pairs perfectly with brotzeit—a savory German snack comprised of bread, meats and cheese—and grilled sausages. The consistency makes it a great binder for fish and meat rubs or salad dressings, like our Grilled Mustard-Herb Potato Salad. You can simply keep the crock on the table and easily upgrade sandwiches and charcuterie. Try it in our Oven-Baked Three-Layer Croque Monsieur Sandwiches and Sausage Traybake with Apples and Onions.
