Description

Dijon-style mustard is a variety of mustard originating from the city of Dijon, in the Burgundy region of France. It is a condiment made primarily from brown or black mustard seeds, vinegar, water, and salt, with a characteristic flavor profile that combines a spicy intensity and a slightly acidic and smooth touch.

It stands out for its creamy texture and strong yet balanced flavor, making it an ideal ingredient for dressing salads, preparing sauces, marinating meats, and enhancing the flavor of various dishes in both traditional and contemporary cuisine.

Dijon-style mustard is recognized for its digestive properties and its content of antioxidants present in mustard seeds. Furthermore, it is low in calories and adds a special touch without adding fats.

In various regions of Latin America, this ingredient is also simply known as Dijon mustard or Dijon-type mustard. In some countries, it may be found under the name fine mustard or strong mustard, although the most common and clear reference is "Dijon mustard".

Its versatility and unique flavor make it an essential for those looking to give their recipes a gourmet and traditional French touch.
