Prepare your taste buds for a journey of delight as the Bedford Tribune unveils a culinary gem: the renowned Secret Herb Mustard Recipe. For many years, this proprietary recipe was used as a fund raiser for the historic Bedford Garden Club. Sadly, the Garden Club was forced to stop selling the mustard as changes in State food preparation laws made it more difficult to make and sell small batch products like this from a home kitchen. But you can now make this Bedford classic in your own home kitchen! After careful sleuthing and tireless pursuit, we are thrilled to share this coveted recipe with you, straight from the heart of our community.
