I remember my father telling me that as a small child he went into the kitchen, saw a bowl with some yellow stuff that he took to be custard and pinched a spoonful........he says it hurt.....taught him never to do anything like that again....lol But he still loved the proper English mustard but my mother made it with milk - she said it made it milder?? I always make it with water. A nice recipe is, I believe, called Norfolk Sausages. You boil the sausages in milk with onions and some mustard and a little flour......must look the recipe out as I haven't had it for years.
