Dijon Mustard

Dijon mustard is a smooth, creamy mustard originating from the French city of Dijon. It is made from brown or black mustard seeds, verjuice or white wine and vinegar, which gives it a sharp, pungent yet refined character. Unlike classic yellow mustard, it is smoother, paler and noticeably more aromatic. In the kitchen it is used in salad dressings, particularly vinaigrette, in meat marinades, sauces, dips and sandwiches. It is an indispensable element of classic French cooking and pairs wonderfully with beef, pork and poultry. It also complements cheeses and vegetables beautifully.
