What is mustard?

Mustard (mustum ardens) is a condiment made from the seeds of mustard, a plant of the Brassicaceae family. Yellow mustard is made from the pale yellow seeds.

This biannual or annual plant is 0.60 to 1.5 m high and 0.30 to 0.70 m wide. It is distinguished by its evergreen foliage and its yellow flowers... mustard obviously.

The plantation of the plants of mustard is to be realized between March and October, they have an excellent resistance to the cold. They appreciate a calcareous, clayey or sandy soil. Count 80 to 95 days after sowing for the mustard plant to reach maturity.

Did you know? Mustard is the most consumed condiment in the world after salt and pepper.

Harvesting mustard seeds

Mustard seeds are harvested in the spring or late summer.

Cut the stems before the seed pods, also called siliques, turn brown. Allow them to dry in an airy, dark room. As they dry, mustard stems lose their seeds. Place a container under your branches to catch the mature seeds.

To harvest mustard seeds, shake the branches over a sieve.

The different varieties of mustard

There are more than 40 species of mustard. The most common are :

  • White mustard (Sinapis alba): this fast growing herbaceous plant has yellow or white petals. It produces seeds that are less bitter and less pungent than other varieties.
  • Black mustard (Brassica nigra): this herbaceous plant has yellow flowers with 4 petals. It produces very pungent black mustard seeds.
  • Field mustard (Sinapis arvensis): this annual plant is often considered a weed. Wild, it proliferates quickly.
  • Brown mustard (or Chinese mustard): this variety of mustard is cultivated for its leaves and for its brown seeds. It is used in the composition of Dijon mustard.

Differences between mustards

Dijon mustard, sweet mustard, old-fashioned mustard... so many names for condiments made from mustard plants. All have their particularities:

  • Sweet mustard: this condiment is made from a mixture of strong mustard seeds, brown and black, to which white mustard seeds are added to soften the taste.
  • Dijon mustard: this is the only variety that can be called "strong" and "semi-strong". It contains exclusively black and brown mustard seeds to which verjuice or vinegar has been added as well as salt and citric acid.
  • Old-fashioned mustard: this condiment is a mixture of mustard seeds, coriander seeds, peppercorns, vinegar, water, oil and flour. It seduces for its thick texture and is very appreciated by cooks to flavour meats.

The origins of mustard

Mustard in Antiquity

The origins of mustard go back to Antiquity. Traces of it can be found as early as 3000 BC in China and Egypt where mustard seeds were found in some ancient tombs. It was used by the Romans and the Greeks who already used it in cooking. Cultivated by Theophrastus and recommended by Aristotle to season poultry, mustard was also mentioned in the cookbook of Apicius "De re coquinaria".

Mustard in the Middle Ages

In France, it is in 1292 that the name of "moutardier" appears for the first time, the one who sells mustard. Less expensive than spices such as pepper, mustard was a condiment widely used by the population.

Did you know that? The golden age of mustard was during the Renaissance when it was used in all banquets and was praised by great names like Rabelais.

In the 17th century, fine mustard made its appearance, followed by numerous aromatic mustard recipes.

Mustard in the industrial era

Always made by hand until then,mustard is made by machine since 1850. The yield is up to 3 times higher than the manual method.

Mustard today

Today, the manufacture of mustard is governed by a decree dating from 1937, revised in 2000. Only a few manufacturers still work mustard with a grinding wheel.

Our recipe ideas with mustard

The Russian yellow mustard pearls I have selected bring a spicy note to your dishes while offering you the possibility to dress your plate elegantly. Discover how to use them in an original way.

The starter: Asparagus salad and poached egg with mustard pearls

This light starter with mustard is best made with fresh asparagus, but out of season, jarred asparagus will do. Cook your asparagus in salted water and poach two eggs. Add salt and pepper and a few pearls of Russian mustard.

The dish: Gourmet rabbit with mustard pearls

Rabbit with mustard is a classic of French cuisine. I suggest you revisit it by making a much lighter version with mustard pearls. Brown your rabbit pieces in a casserole dish with a little oil and sprinkle with chicken stock and dry white wine. Add pepper and salt if necessary. Serve and sprinkle with a few pearls of mustard and a little fresh parsley. A delight with wild rice or roasted potatoes.

Dessert: Chocolate Moelleux with yellow fruit and mustard

The traditional chocolate cake is back in a spicy version. Here, you will accompany it with roasted yellow fruits, mirabelles for example, on which you will add some mustard pearls.

How to store mustard pearls?

Mustard pearls should be kept in their original glass, away from the sun and preferably in a cool place.
