Soft Pretzels with Golden Ale Mustard

Ingredients

1 cup Warm water
1 tsp Sugar
2 ¼ tsp Active dry yeast
2 ½ cups All-purpose flour
½ tsp Salt
1 cup Boiling water
2 tbsp Baking soda
Course kosher salt
3 tbsp Butter, melted

Directions

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the warm water, sugar and yeast, and let it proof for 5 minutes until foaming.

Add the flour and salt and mix with a dough hook to combine. Then knead for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and soft. Cover bowl of dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

While the dough rests, combine the boiling water and baking soda, stirring until the baking soda is dissolved. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon baking mat.

Divide the dough into eight equal pieces and roll each piece into a long rope, about 30″ long. Twist into a pretzel shape by making an upside down “U” shape and crossing and twisting the ends, then folding them over to the top of the “U”.

Place the pretzels into the hot baking soda bath for 20-30 seconds, spooning the liquid over the pretzels, then transfer to the baking sheet and sprinkle with coarse kosher salt and bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the pretzels from the oven and immediately brush with the melted butter.

Serve with Golden Ale Mustard (or any BWF mustard)

Pepper-Jelly Glazed Ham with Mustard

Ingredients

1 8-9-lb smoked, fully cooked bone-in half ham
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp freshly ground pepper
2 cups Riesling or other white wine
2 tbsp peppercorns
1 tbsp whole cloves
2 bay leaves
6 cups ginger ale

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 °F.

Make shallow cuts in fat of ham 1 inch apart in a diamond pattern. Rub olive oil and ground pepper over ham. Place ham on a rack in a 14- x 11-inch roasting pan. Pour wine into bottom of pan; stir in peppercorns and next 2 ingredients. Add 4 cups water.

Cover pan loosely with aluminum foil. Bake, covered, at 350 °F on a lower oven rack 2 hours.

Meanwhile, bring ginger ale to a boil in a deep-sided 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, and boil 25 to 30 minutes or until reduced to 3/4 cup. Remove from heat, and stir in pepper jelly until smooth.

Uncover ham and baste. Bake 2 1/2 more hours or until a meat thermometer registers 160° and ham is caramelized, basting every 30 minutes with ginger ale mixture. (Shield ham with foil to prevent excessive browning.)

Remove from oven; transfer to a serving platter, reserving 2 cups pan drippings. Let stand 20 minutes before carving.

Pour reserved drippings through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a medium saucepan; skim fat. Bring drippings to a boil over high heat, and boil 12 to 15 minutes, or until liquid is reduced to 3/4 cup. Remove from heat; stir in mustard. Serve with ham.

Corned Beef Eggrolls with Golden Ale Mustard Sauce

Ingredients

Egg Rolls
8 Square egg roll wrappers
8 slices Swiss cheese, diced
12 oz Corned beef, diced
12 tbsp Sauerkraut, diced
1 tbsp Water
Peanut oil, for frying
Kosher salt, to taste
Horseradish-Mustard Sauce
1 cup Sour cream
2 tbsp Prepared horseradish

Directions

Make the egg rolls: Mix corned beef, sauerkraut and swiss cheese in a bowl. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface oriented like a diamond. Scoop 2 tablespoons and place in center of eggroll wrapper.

In a small bowl add water. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the water. Fold the bottom of the wrapper up and over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll to seal. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 8 egg rolls total.

Fill a medium pot halfway with oil and heat over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375 °F (190 °C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet.

While the oil is heating, make the horseradish mustard sauce: In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, horseradish and Golden Ale Mustard. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Fry the egg rolls, 2–3 at a time, in the hot oil for 2–3 minutes, flipping occasionally to brown evenly. Transfer to the wire rack and season immediately with salt.

Serve the egg rolls hot with the horseradish mustard sauce for dipping.
