    Sweet-Hot Honey Mustard

    Prep: 5 min., Cook: 12 min. This is a delicious complement to holiday ham and turkey. Spread it on a grilled chicken sandwich or over the crust of a quiche before adding the filling. Straight from the jar, it makes a bold and spicy dip for egg rolls. Look for bargains on packets of dry mustard at wholesale clubs and specialty markets, or order online at www.penzeys.com.
