Flustered Honey Mustard Dip

  • 1 Thbs nutritional yeast flakes {optional} -- (1 to 2)
  • 1 Thbs honey {the darker the better} -- (1 to 2)
  • 1 Thbs mustard -- (1 to 2)
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar
  • Habanero Hot sauce or minced habanero to taste

    Mix everything. Basically, that's it. The quality lies in the ingredients. The yeast, as odd as it may sound, adds a subtle smoothness and rounds out any sharpness in the other ingredients. This is NOT the same as yeast you'd use in bread. It is a dead form, found in yellow flakes or powders, sold most often in health or natural foods stores. It's especially good for vegans as it's one of the richest sources of B vitamins {including B12} in the world. If you think it sounds too weird, though, leave it out.

    My mustard of choice is an organic Dijon that I found at the local Albertson's. Really, it's just whatever you like. However, I *will* add that Coleman's {killer} English mustard is far from objectionable. :) My hab sauce of choice is Melinda's Special Reserve, but as I have yet to find some more here I'm stuck with Yuccy-tan. As Stu says, "Ew, ew ew ew, ewewew". At least in comparison...
