Description
Keen's dry mustard is a powdered condiment obtained from the dried seeds of the mustard plant, known for its intense, spicy, and aromatic flavor. It is presented as a fine powder of yellow or light brown color, which, when hydrated, releases a strong and distinctive flavor, ideal for enhancing the taste of various culinary preparations.
This ingredient originates from the Australian company Keen's, recognized since the 19th century for producing high-quality dry mustard, highly appreciated especially in the cuisines of Australia and New Zealand, although its use has become popular internationally.
Keen's dry mustard is rich in sulfur compounds that provide antioxidant and digestive properties. Furthermore, it is low in calories and gluten-free, making it suitable for various diets. Its flavoring power makes it a key element for preparing rubs, sauces, marinades, and seasoning meats.
In different Hispanic American countries, dry mustard may also be known as mustard powder, ground mustard, or simply dry mustard. However, the "Keen's" brand is a particular benchmark due to its quality and characteristic flavor.
