Cherry Mustard

This is Chef Adam Lambert's recipe for a tart and tangy cherry-mustard. You can use it as a spread on a sandwich or a brat, or it makes a beautiful stripe on a cheese or charcuterie board.

 1 pint pitted cherries
 1/4 cup honey
 1/2 tsp kosher salt
 3/4 cup Dijon Mustard total (use a high quality French Dijon for best results)

1

In a heavy bottomed pot, cook down cherries and honey over medium heat for approximately 20 minutes. Place cherries, honey, and natural cooking juices into a blender and blend until smooth. Pass blended cherries through a fine mesh strainer directly into a mixing bowl (or combine both those steps using a food mill.) Add a pinch of salt, and start adding mustard, a little at a time until desired taste and consistency in achieved. You might not use all the 3/4's cup, but have enough on hand to adjust as needed.
