Description

Country-style Dijon mustard is a variety of mustard originating from the Dijon region of France, renowned worldwide for its intense and slightly spicy flavor. This "country-style" version is characterized by its more rustic texture, where the mustard seeds are partially whole or crushed, providing an artisanal touch and a more robust sensation on the palate, ideal for enhancing flavors in dressings, marinades, sauces, and grilled preparations.

Origin: Its origin dates back to the city of Dijon, the capital of the Burgundy region, historically recognized for the artisanal production of mustards with natural ingredients and traditional techniques. The designation "country-style" evokes this more artisanal method in contrast to completely ground and homogeneous mustards.

Properties: Country-style Dijon mustard is low in calories, rich in antioxidants, and contains anti-inflammatory compounds thanks to the mustard seeds. Furthermore, its spice content helps stimulate appetite and digestion. It is a healthy and versatile alternative to enhance the flavor of meats, vegetables, sandwiches, and dressings without adding excessive sugars or fats.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: In different Latin American countries, this mustard may be referred to as mostaza rústica (rustic mustard), mostaza artesanal (artisanal mustard), mostaza a la antigua (old-fashioned mustard), or simply mostaza Dijon con granos (Dijon mustard with grains). These terms reflect its texture and more traditional production process within the regional culinary market.
