What it is

Mustard seeds are the small, round seeds of the mustard plant, which belongs to the Brassica family. They are typically harvested when the seed pods are dry and then cleaned. The seeds can be used whole, ground into powder, or processed into mustard paste.

Why it's used

Mustard seeds are primarily used as a spice and flavoring agent. They add a pungent, sharp taste to foods. They are a key ingredient in prepared mustards, but also appear in spice blends, sauces, pickles, and marinades.

Health notes

Mustard seed is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It is a common spice used in amounts that do not typically raise health concerns. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated mustard seed and its derivatives. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from typical dietary consumption.

Allergen info

Mustard is considered one of the major food allergens by the FDA. Individuals with a mustard allergy should avoid products containing it.
