English mustard is a spicy condiment made from ground mustard seeds, vinegar, water, and spices. Its characteristic flavor is intense and slightly pungent, ideal for enhancing the taste of meats, sauces, dressings, and pickles in cooking.
Originating in the United Kingdom, English mustard has a long culinary tradition in European cuisine, although its use has spread to many world cuisines due to its versatility and flavor potency.
Among its properties, it stands out for its ability to stimulate digestion and provide a unique flavor without adding many calories. Furthermore, it contains bioactive compounds like glucosinolates, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
In different Latin American countries, English mustard may be known simply as yellow mustard or strong mustard, although these terms can vary and also refer to other types of mustard. However, English mustard is the most common term to designate this specific condiment within the culinary context.
