Mustard Powder

Bring bold flavour and versatility to your pantry with Ceylon Kokonati Mustard Powder. Made from finely ground yellow mustard seeds, this pantry staple delivers a clean, mildly pungent flavour that develops into a pleasant warmth when mixed with liquid or heated during cooking. It blends easily into recipes without the texture of whole mustard seeds, making it ideal for sauces, spice rubs, marinades, dressings and baking.

Mustard powder is widely used in Indian, British, European and American cooking. It adds depth to curries, casseroles, cheese sauces, vinaigrettes, pickles and homemade mustard, while also enhancing meat rubs, vegetable dishes and savoury baked goods. Because it disperses evenly, it provides consistent flavour throughout your recipes.

Potential Benefits of Mustard Powder

While mustard powder has been valued in traditional cuisines for generations, we do not make therapeutic claims. Mustard powder is appreciated because it:

• Adds flavour without added sugar.
• Naturally contains plant compounds found in mustard seeds.
• Provides small amounts of naturally occurring minerals from mustard seed.
• Makes it easy to make homemade condiments with ingredients you choose.
• Helps build flavour in recipes using only a small quantity.

Traditional & Topical Uses

Ground mustard has also been traditionally used in homemade mustard plasters and warming foot soaks in various cultures. These uses are part of traditional practices rather than modern medical recommendations. Always perform a patch test before topical use and discontinue use if irritation occurs.
