What it is

Honey mustard is a condiment made from a blend of mustard and honey. The base is typically yellow mustard, which is a mixture of ground mustard seeds, vinegar, water, salt, and spices. Honey is then added to sweeten and mellow the sharp taste of the mustard.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use honey mustard as a flavoring agent and sweetener in a variety of foods. It adds a sweet and tangy taste that complements both savory and sweet dishes. It is commonly found in salad dressings, marinades, sauces, and as a spread for sandwiches and meats.

Health notes

Honey mustard is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Both honey and mustard are common food items with long histories of use. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated components of honey and mustard, but no specific evaluations for the combined 'honey mustard' as a distinct ingredient are widely cited. At typical consumption levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects.

Allergen info

Mustard is one of the 9 FDA major allergens. Honey is not a major allergen. Gluten is not typically present in honey mustard unless added as a thickener or flavor enhancer in specific formulations.
