What Is Dry Mustard? Dry mustard is powdered mustard seeds. It’s also known as English mustard and is a spice used to season sauces, dressings, salads, meats, and other foods that go well with its earthy, bitter flavor.

Mustard is the second most-used spice in the United States—its usage is only exceeded by the peppercorn (usually in ground pepper form). Most of us are familiar with standard yellow prepared mustard, but there are many wonderful varieties of seeds and prepared mustards to experiment with.

Dry mustard by itself has no flavor or taste. It must be combined with water to release the essential oil which gives it flavor.

Mustard is most often used at the table as a condiment on cold and hot meats. It is also used as an ingredient in mayonnaise, vinaigrette, marinades, and barbecue sauce. Mustard as an emulsifier can stabilize a mixture of two or more immiscible liquids, such as oil and water.

Just like yellow mustard, dry mustard powder can be used to make vinaigrettes and salad dressings. A vinaigrette is a lighter salad dressing made from a mixture of vinegar or wine, oil and seasonings.

Mustard is known for its rubefacient properties which can help in relieving any kind of muscle spasm. Consuming a tsp of yellow mustard powder can help in maintaining strong bones, joints and muscles as it is a good source of potassium and calcium.

Eating mustard seeds, leaves, or paste is generally considered safe for most people, especially when consumed in amounts typically found in the average person’s diet. That said, consuming large amounts, such as those typically found in mustard extracts, may result in abdominal pain, diarrhea, and gut inflammation.

Gulden’s Spicy Brown Mustard “Since the main ingredient of this mustard is organic and because it has less sodium than many of the other mustards on the list, Gulden’s mustard comes in first place,” Tao says.

The Heinz hold on ketchup, however, is much more stable than French’s hold on mustard. The mustard market is much smaller to start with, and although you may have a bottle of French’s mustard in your fridge right now, you likely also have a Dijon, and even a spicy grain mustard.
