About Mustard powder

Mustard powder is made by grinding dried mustard seeds into a fine or somewhat coarse powder. Its colour and pungency depend partly on the seed used and how it is processed; dry powder may have a different aroma and taste from mustard mixed with liquid.

It is used as a seasoning in spice mixtures, sauces, and other cooking. Products may be made from different mustard seeds or blends, and some are sold as ground seed while others are formulated mustard preparations, so the label matters when identifying the ingredient.
