and of all the amazing mustards available, she had to get stuck with one of the most shitty vinegary last-resort-only option
As a mustard lover, heinz isnt even close to the actual worst one, which is the whole foods brand mustard. Its made with apple cider and it is revolting. The best widely available yellow mustard to just grab in a store is plochman's.
There are so many awesome fancy mustards out there, but if I want the ballpark standard yellow mustard, I usually just go for French’s. It’s the same principle with ketchup. When I want ketchup I just want Heinz. If I go to a restaurant and they are all proud of their “house made” ketchup, it is probably going to be too sweet or tomatoy or whatever. Just give me what I grew up with and don’t mess with it.
That said my wife has been making mustard at home recently and it is amazing. It’s not yellow mustard but a tangy grainy mustard that is great.
Most restaurants make their ketchup with canned tomato puree. You can’t start there and expect to get a prizewinning sauce. Equally, I can’t get behind any store shelf bottles of ketchup. They all have this metallic taste to them. It’s just funny how universally picky people are about their tomato sauces, myself included.
havent tried plochmans but i will. for emergency widely available mustard i typically recommend frenchs dijon (NOT the "chardonnay" dijon)--it's been so long i don't even know if they make it anymore, but it should say something like "our boldest dijon ever" on the label
usually i stick with colman's tins of just mustard flour and make it myself
