Mustard Bath Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a container with a tight fitting lid.
• To use: add 1/4 cup of the mustard misture to the bath under running water. Relax for 15 - 20 minutes, adding more hot water if needed. Rinse under a cool shower. Wear warm clothes until pores have closed.
• For footbaths, add 1 T and soak for 15 minutes. The footbaths help with circulation in the feet.
• The essential oils are optional, but the product would greatly improve with them added.

Steps:

• Stir together all ingredients and pour into a clean, dry container.
• To use in a bath: Add 1/4 cup to the bath under running water. After the bath, dress warmly until your pores are closed as the mustard will open them.
• For a footbath: Add 2 Tbs to a basin of hot water and soak for feet for 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Place the sliced cucumbers and onions into a large bowl and sprinkle the salt over the top. Fill the bowl with enough water to cover the cucumbers. Let stand for 8 to 10 hours.
• Drain and rinse the cucumbers and onion with fresh water. Sterilize 4 (1 quart) jars and lids.
• In a 6 quart pot, stir together the sugar and flour. Whisk in the vinegar, turmeric, mustard powder and celery seed to make a smooth paste. Add the cucumbers and onions and fill with enough water to cover. Stir, and bring to a boil. Cook until thickened, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Pour into hot sterilized jars filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Seal with lids and rings. Process for 10 minutes in a simmering water bath. Refrigerate any jars that fail to seal properly.
