Ingredients
- Green beans

Homemade Mustard with Balsamic Vinegar
Tired of store brand mustards? Then come make your own with this easy to follow recipe!
Ingredients:
- 2T yellow mustard seeds
- 2T brown or black mustard seeds
- 1/4c water
- 1/4c champagne or white wine vinegar (5% or more acidity)

Balsamic reductions are easy to prepare and offer a flavorful way to finish salads, entrees and desserts. Here are the steps:
Be creative. Pick a flavor of High Country Balsamic to pair with your meal (if you need a suggestion, just e-mail or callHigh Country Olive Oil).

Balsamic contains natural sugars that can burn, so avoid boiling. The amount of reduction depends on your personal preference. The longer you simmer, the thicker it will become. Use a toothpick or popsicle stick to measure the amount of reduction. Remember that in its heated state it will be at its thinnest consistency when you think you're done.
