Dijon mustard

Dijon mustard is a smooth, tangy condiment originating from the Dijon region of France. It is made from crushed brown or black mustard seeds blended with ingredients like water, wine (typically white wine), vinegar, and salt, which give it a sharp, slightly spicy flavor. Unlike yellow mustard, which is milder, Dijon has a more pungent and complex taste, making it a popular addition to sauces, dressings, and marinades. Its rich, creamy texture helps it to blend well into various dishes, enhancing flavor with a sophisticated, subtle heat.
