plant overview
pickling spice and stain fighter
Mustard is a plant in the cabbage family that is native to Europe and the
Mediterranean region. Like other species in the Brassica family, mustard is
harvested for its zesty-tasting leaves that are cooked and eaten as a
vegetable in summer. Mustard is also grown and harvested for its seeds,
which range in color and flavor sharpness depending on variety. Like
peppercorns, mustard seed has a long history of use globally and remains one
of the most widely traded spices in the world today. In addition to culinary
use, mustard seed is used to make heat-producing poultices. Powdered mustard
seed is also used as a laundry aid – it helps to break up protein-based
stains, such as dried egg yolk.
