Organic Black Mustard Seeds, India
Black mustard seeds are thought to be native to the Southern Mediterranean region. However, as they are some of the oldest spices used, it is difficult to be certain. Although their appearance is similar to brown, black mustard seeds are bigger and possess an earthy, yet pleasant flavor that is far less bitter. Black seeds also shed their pods when they mature, unlike brown seeds, making it necessary to hand pick them, which makes them harder to attain.

Mustard has been called the third most important spice after salt and pepper.

The enzyme myrosine is what creates the pungent taste of mustard and is activated by water. Roasting these seeds in oil will keep the taste subtle and add a less pungent flavor to things such as curry pastes. Raw seeds are an important part of pickling and shrimp and crab boil blends. As with most seeds, dry-roasting them will bring out their aromatic and nutty flavor. We also carry yellow mustard seeds, oriental mustard seeds and brown mustard seeds.

We obtain our black mustard seeds from India.
