Mustard is a condiment made from the seeds of a mustardplant (white/ yellow mustard, Sinapis alba; brown/ Indianmustard, Brassica juncea; or black mustard, Brassica nigra). Commonly paired with meats and cheeses, mustard is also added to sandwiches, hamburgers, corn dogs, and hot dogs.
Also in foods, yellow mustard seed is used as a spice and to flavor mustardcondiment. White mustard (Brassica alba) is the most mild and is used to make traditional American yellow mustard. Brown mustard (Brassica juncea) is dark yellow, has a pungent taste, and is used to make Dijon mustard.
