I finally got on the case to bring you the definitive kitchen clone for this one - and as it turns out its a cinch to recreate. Tie one hand behind your back and witness plain old ground dried mustard mixing it up with sweet and sour flavors in a saucepan over medium heat. The cornstarch wrangles around in there to thicken and stabilize while Captain Habanero pops in for the perfect spicy punch. Use it for dipping, use it for spreading...use it again and again, since you'll make about a cup of the stuff. And McDonald's will be glad that we no longer need to hoard the little blister packs from the restaurants.

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 tablespoons ground dried mustard
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon salt
10-14 drops habanero hot sauce

1. Combine all ingredients in a small uncovered saucepan. Whisk until smooth.

2. Turn heat to medium and bring mixture to a boil, stirring often. Sauce should thicken in 2 to 3 minutes after it begins to boil. Remove sauce from heat and chill in refrigerator in a covered container.

Makes 1 cup.

I made this recipe. It is delicious! I also gave my mom the recipe and they really liked it too. It's the best! I always liked getting an extra cup to dip my fries in it--now I don't have to.

I always order Hot mustard sauce at McDonalds. This was as close as you can get to the real thing. I was so happy when I tried this recipe. Now I can fix my own healthy chicken nuggets and enjoy the sauce.
