 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1/4   c            Dry mustard -- Colemans
    1/4   c            White wine vinegar
    1/3   c            Dry white wine
  1       tb           Sugar
    1/2   ts           Salt
  3                    Egg yolks

 You begin with dry mustard, adding vinegar for
 tartness and wine for mellowness; then you cook with
 egg yolks to give the spread its velvety smooth
 texture. You can season the mildly flavored mustard as
 suggested, or leave if plain.

 For gift-giving, package the mustards in jars and
 identify them with decorative labels. In top of a
 double boiler, stir together mustard, vinegar, wine,
 sugar, and salt. Let stand, uncovered, for 2 hours.
 Beat egg yolks into mustard mixture. Place over
 simmering water and cook, stirring with a wire whisk,
 until mixture thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
 Pour into small jars and let cool. Cover tightly and
 refrigerate for up to a month. Makes about 1 cup.
