French Mustard

French mustard is a smooth, creamy mustard characterised by its light to medium yellow colour and a milder, less pungent flavour compared to classic hot mustard. It is made from white or yellow mustard seeds, vinegar, salt, and spices. The most well-known variety is Dijon mustard, originating from the French city of Dijon. In the kitchen, it is used as a base for salad dressings, sauces, marinades, spreads, or as a dip for meats and cold cuts. It pairs excellently with beef steak, chicken, and vegetable dishes. It is an essential ingredient in classic vinaigrette.
