Default Deli Mustard help, please - Take two

Thought I'd try again. In my first post I said;

I didn't say I couldn't find it. I said I couldn't order it. There are
many things that can't be imported into this country, and this mustard
is one of them. Not unusual. There are many foods I can't get here. So
I've learned to make them myself. This was a BIG problem trying to make
'Wright's Liquid Smoke." (Can't bring that in either!)

This mustard is one such item that I need to make myself, so I searched
for the copycat recipes. Unfortunately there were none for this mustard
that I could find, and as no one here was willing to produce one, I
guess a copycat recipe doesn't exist. I also looked for any Deli style
recipes and found a couple. I tried them, with the one that I posted
coming the closest. Close, but not the same.

I posted the recipe I used in hopes that someone with more skill than
mine (and not in spelling) would try to reproduce it as an experiment
and tell me what was needed.

Anyone game to tackle a cooking problem? Or is this too difficult?
