Hot Mustard Artisan Pretzels

Recipe No. 08 • The Kingston Signature Collection

Bold Mustard. Built to Finish Strong.

Every Kingston recipe has a story.

Some are designed to comfort.

Some are designed to surprise.

Hot Mustard was created for people who love the rich character of mustard—but aren't afraid of a little heat.

I didn't want to create another overly spicy snack.

I wanted to create a great mustard recipe that just happened to fight back.

The Flavor

Hot Mustard begins with a rich, smooth mustard foundation layered with savory herbs, garlic, onion, and carefully balanced spices that create depth instead of sharpness.

From the very first bite, the mustard takes center stage.

It's bold.

Smooth.

Full-bodied.

As the flavor develops, a blend of chili flakes and ghost pepper slowly begins to build, adding warmth without masking everything that came before it.

The heat isn't there to overpower the recipe.

It's there to complete it.

The result is a mustard recipe that's every bit as flavorful as it is memorable.

The Kingston Difference

I don't believe spicy recipes should punish you.

I believe they should reward you.

That's why every Kingston recipe is built around balance first, with heat used as another ingredient rather than the entire experience.

Every batch is handcrafted in intentionally small micro-batches, allowing me to focus on consistency, freshness, and the details that are often lost in large-scale production.

Because the best recipes aren't rushed.

Crafted the Kingston Way

Every Kingston recipe starts as an idea—not a production schedule.

I intentionally produce every recipe in micro-batches, allowing each batch to receive the attention it deserves from start to finish.

Nothing leaves my kitchen unless I'd proudly put my own name on it.

Fortunately...

I already do.

I don't produce months of inventory for warehouse shelves.

I create recipes in carefully planned micro-batches, package them fresh, and ship them with the same care and attention I've believed in since the first day Kingston began.
