In 1866, Queen Victoria bestowed Colman's Mustard with the ultimate seal of approval: the Royal Warrant. It has been stocked in the Royal kitchen at Buckingham Palace ever since.
In honor of Prince George's birthday on July 22nd, host the ultimate royal soiree. Whether its Fish and Chips or Sheppard's Pie, no dish is complete without Colman's English Mustard, the iconic spice approved by Queen herself!
To properly celebrate, I've included several savory and flavorful recipes provided by Colman's Mustard to create a meal fit for a queen.
Some recipes include:

1 T. Colman's Original Prepared Mustard
1/4 C. diced onion
1 T. fresh lemon juice

2 cups canned sweet corn (after draining)
1 green onion, finely chopped

Directions: Melt the butter over low heat in a medium-size saucepan. Add the flour and mustard powder, and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually stir in the chicken stock (don't worry about lumps), then bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring continuously until it thickens. Add the corn and ham. Cover and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the green onion and heave cream, and continue cooking only until the mixture is thoroughly warmed (but don't let it boil). Serve immediately
Grandma Fay's Bar-B-Q Ham Rolls

Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is hot (about 10 minutes). Serve the ham warm on sliced dinner rolls, as an appetizer, or pile it on submarine rolls for hearty eaters.
