Description

Dry mustard is a fine powder obtained from the seeds of the mustard plant, which have been dehydrated and ground. This ingredient is widely used in cooking to add a spicy, slightly bitter, and aromatic flavor to various preparations such as marinades, sauces, dressings, sausages, and spice blends.

The origin of dry mustard dates back to regions of Europe and Asia, where for centuries mustard seeds have been used both whole and ground to season dishes. Currently, its production extends worldwide, making it a staple in the cuisine of many countries.

Among its properties, dry mustard is recognized for its ability to enhance flavors, in addition to containing compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. It is also a good source of minerals such as selenium and magnesium.

In the context of Hispanic American cuisine, dry mustard can be found under different names, including: mustard powder, powdered mustard, or simply ground mustard. It is important not to confuse it with prepared or paste mustard, which is a mixture with vinegar and other ingredients.
