Mustard Seeds

Mustard Seeds are small oilseeds commonly used as a spice and condiment in many cuisines — particularly South Asian, European and Middle Eastern cooking — where they are prized for their pungent, nutty flavor and for making prepared mustards. They are a concentrated plant ingredient and provide about 26.1g of protein per 100g, along with substantial fiber and healthy unsaturated fats. Mustard seeds also contribute trace minerals such as magnesium and manganese and contain sulfur-containing compounds (mustard oils/glucosinolates) that contribute pungency and have been studied for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
