How to Make Vegan Mustard Dipping Sauce
My mustard sauce is one of those dipping sauces that require only minimal skills and time. In fact, itโs ready in just a few minutes!
The Ingredients
The main ingredient in this mustard dipping sauce is plain oat yogurt. However, you may use any preferred plain plant yogurt. For example, almond, soy, hemp, or cashew yogurt. Make sure itโs unsweetened though.
Next, to add some sweetness, letโs add date syrup, which is a thinner version of date paste. However, feel free to use any sweetener you like e.g., maple syrup or even honey. Feel free to make your own date paste!
Optionally, if you desire some extra tartness, you may add a tiny bit of lemon juice. However, I personally feel that the mustard and yogurt offer enough tartness.
The final component is whole grain yellow mustard. I opted for whole grain mustard, but any yellow mustard will do. Both, Dijon mustard and regular yellow mustard are suitable to use in this mustard dipping sauce.
Dijon Mustard vs Regular Mustard
Dijon mustard, a type of mustard that originates from Dijon, a town in Burgundy, France. It gets its distinctive flavour from white wine.
The most distinctive difference between Dijon and yellow mustard is their colours. Yellow mustard is bright yellow whereas Dijon mustard has a less vibrant shade of yellow tinged with brown.
The second noteworthy difference is in their flavour and ingredients. Yellow mustard is made of mustard powder, vinegar, and a spice blend. Also, it has a milder flavour. Dijon mustard, on the other hand, has a distinctive mustard and more intense flavour. It is made of brown and/or black mustard seeds and white wine. One of the main ingredients is verjuice, which is a juice made from unripe grapes. [source]
So, itโs up to you, which one you will use in this mustard dipping sauce. Also, feel free to adjust the quantity of mustard according to your own preferences โ some people favour a milder taste while others would rather have it more intense.
The Process
I think that preparing a recipe cannot get any easier than this mustard dipping sauce. Itโs simply down to combining all the ingredients in a small bowl. Use a spoon and stir until you have a smooth and homogenous mixture.
How to Store this Mustard Dipping Sauce
Store this dipping sauce in an airtight jar or a container in the fridge for up to 7 days.

My vegan mustard dipping sauce is excellent with dumplings, rice paper rolls, raw veggies (carrots, celery, turnip, cucumber, bell peppers, kohlrabi, cabbage, cauliflower), baked potatoes and other veggies (potatoes, sweet potatoes, parsnip, carrots, beetroot, turnip), and tacos.
Furthermore, you may thin it with some water and use as a dressing on your salads or Buddha bowls.
