    I tried this quite awhile ago & it wasn't close. Kept looking & ran across this from another web site. the Recipe is so perfect !!!!!! 3 Tbls each, spicy brown mustard & yellow 2 Tbls Golden Syrup, don't use Karo it wont taste right 2 tsp dry mustard powder 1/2 tsp soy sauce 1/4 tsp each, turmeric & cayenne. Combine all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl, mix well. Microwave about 30-35 seconds then mix again. This part is a MUST put in a jar, cover & refrigerate AT LEAST 6 hour's so flavors can meld. I guarantee You'll Love It.

    I think I've found all the right ingredients to this, but not the ratios--and it's a little different that this. Last attempt: 2 T honey, 2 T French's mustard, 1 T Dijon, 1 T prepared horseradish sauce, 1 T mayo, 1 T fresh lemon juice, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp tumeric, 1 tsp cayenne, 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, 1 tsp ground dry mustard (that last one was kind of an accident, not sure if it's necessary). The taste was pretty similar to the sauce, but it definitely needs a little work.

    You tell us what the differences are between your recipe and McDonald's. You are all gonna NEED this recipe too, because MickeyD's has quit serving Hot Mustard Sauce all together. I have confirmed it with corporate.

    I love McDonalds hot mustard too and although I haven't tried this recipe but after reading it I knew it wouldn't totally work. I taste horseradish in their sauce. That is probably where the heat comes from. If play around with it you may figure it out. If you mix dijon and a little honey you can make a really good sauce also.

    This is an OK mustard sauce but it is NO WHERE CLOSE to tasting like the stuff at Mcdonalds.

    • Why? How is McDonald's mustard different? Please provide more info so other users can tweak the recipe to make it more authentic.

    I LOVE McDonalds Hot Mustard Sauce. I was really excited to find this recipe and ran out to get the ingredients. I just tried the sauce and it was no where near McDonalds Sauce. I did find another recipe online as well, will try that one next. It looks more like the original ingredients listed on McDonalds website.

    I'm a really big fan of McDonalds Hot Mustard, not just with their McNuggets, but I try to get some extra for when I make chicken tenders and other things at home. However the folks at Mickey D's can be pretty forgetful and often don't put it in my bag when I ask, so I was excited to see this recipe. After trying a few batches I was disappointed though. This is a pretty good mustard recipe, but it doesn't taste like the kind they give you at McDonalds. I've tried messing with the ingredient amounts, but still nothing like the real thing.
