Holiday Entertaining Made Easy: Mustard-Based Appetizers for Christmas Parties
Entertaining around the holidays can provide a bit of stress for homeowners around the world. Whether you’re brand new to hosting or an experienced host, a new recipe can leave guests raving about your food. One special ingredient that comes in a variety of flavors and textures can do just that: mustard.
7 Mustard-Based Appetizers for Your Next Christmas Party
Potstickers with Mustard Dipping Sauce
Who doesn’t love a bite size favorite like potstickers? There are many prepared potstickers you can choose from at the grocery store, or you can make them from scratch. Our high quality Morehouse Mustard compliments soy sauce well so you can make your own dipping sauce that has a special kick – even consider a spicy horseradish if you think your group would like that.
Dijon Deviled Eggs
Add a unique touch to a familiar favorite. Simply prepare your hard-boiled eggs as you would, but add dijon mustard to your yolk mixture. You can even get creative and try different mustards or special toppings.
Beef Skewers with a Honey Mustard Glaze
Once simple addition is to prepare beef skewers to your liking and then add a honey mustard glaze for a unique taste. Not interested in the sweet touch? You can sub out honey mustard for horseradish, wasabi mustard, or other mustards.
Rabbit Crostini with Mustard Sauce
Did you know that rabbit pairs well with mustard? Not all people will be on board for rabbit as a main dish, however, try introducing it as a crostini with a mustard marinade and glaze.
Savory Cheesecake with Mustard & Leek
Another unique offering to consider is a savory cheesecake. You can even make small, bite sized ones. Mustard and leek offers a unique flavor combination for your guests, but you can substitute for other types of ingredients as well if you think they may win the crowd over.
Broccoli Mustard Cheese Crackers
Add a special piece to your charcuterie board by making up your own savory crackers. Smoky meets tangy in this cracker which can pair well with several types of meat such as ham, salami, and prosciutto.
Roasted Sweet Potato & Apple with Mustard Habanero Slaw
A nice winter staple is sweet potato. Roasted to perfection, a tangy spicy slaw is a perfect contrast. We promise your guests will be asking for this recipe and leave them talking about it after.
Adding any of the above to your holiday spread can significantly diversify your offerings. If none of them seem to strike your fancy, hopefully they can provide inspiration to get creative and incorporate one or several of our Morehouse Mustards or horseradish products to your holiday gatherings.
