Jodhpur Brown Mustard Seeds

The star of Dijon, brown mustard seeds like ours that hail from Jodhpur Rajasthan, add a pleasant punch to just about any dish, from chicken salad to marinades to curries. Tiny but mighty, these seeds are smaller in comparison to white and black varieties and are less spicy than black but spicier than white. Earthy and pungent with medium-low heat, they pair perfectly with other seasonings such as coriander, cumin and fennel. Worthy to note: Mustard seeds are an excellent source of several good-for-you vitamins, including vitamins C and K, thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B6 and folic acid.
