Mustard seeds (top-left) may be ground (top-right) to make different kinds of mustard. The other four mustards pictured are a mild yellow mustard with turmeric coloring (center left), a Bavarian sweet mustard (center right), a Dijon mustard (lower left), and a coarse French mustard made mainly from black mustard seeds (lower right).
Mustard is a condiment made from the mustard seeds from one of three varieties of mustard plant: Sinapis alba, white mustard (also known as yellow mustard); Brassica juncea, brown mustard; or Brassica nigra, black mustard. The whole, ground, cracked, or bruised mustard seeds are mixed with water, vinegar, or other liquids, and sometimes other flavorings and spices, to create a paste or sauce ranging in color from bright yellow to dark brown.
