Gardening

Q: has anyone here made homemade mustard?  We have so many bolted mustard greens and the seeds are ready to harvest. I found a pretty simple recipe but as a test I seperated one dried pod from the seeds and it took around 20 seconds!

It seems so labour intensive just to get the seeds it's probably not worth it but I'm tempted 😂

Harvested as many seeds as I could,  it wasn't horribly difficult to seperate but there are still some little bits,  it will be a small jar of mustard!

This year I tried stomping on them inside a pillow cover, worked ok but there are probably better methods. I want to use them to grow sprouts / microgreens in the winter.

As I was harvesting them I noticed that if I broke them up a bit as I was pulling them off the stalk and into the bag they would separate and the seeds morltlt sunk to the bottom.

After that I was able to remove the top layer and shake,  repeat.  The last step was a bit painstaking though.  If you are using them for seed you don't need to worry about having a bit of the husk though!

Yes hope so! In any case was a lot more work than I expected.
