Moutarde Dijon 7 oz

$3.89 Ingredients; mustard seeds, vinegar, water, sea salt, naturally occuring sulfites. From the Delouis Fils family company, we get a delicious moutarde de Dijon, or in English, Dijon mustard! In the late 1800s, the Delouis family starts a vinegar company in Limoges, France and by the mid-1900s they started making their fabulously famous mustards. This was a simple transition for the company because vinegar is the base of mustard. To make this mustard traditionally Dijon, the mustard seeds are soaked in verguice (sour juice from unripened grapes) before they are used. In addition to the soaking process, the mustard contains no additives or preservatives to make it properly Dijon. Our advice is to use this mustard as you would other mustards. It is particularly good for making Dijon based sauces for chicken and salmon, as well as many types of salad dressings. For a taste of France and an easy to prepare lunch, pair this mustard with French ham and butter on a baguette. When choosing mustard over other condiments, it is important to consider the amazing health benefits of mustard. When the plant came to the United States because of Spanish missionaries, it was known as a cure-all ingredient. This condiment is helpful for speeding up metabolism and aids in digestion. The seed itself provides a good source for omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, dietary fiber and iron! Besides the great health benefits, this mustard won the gold metal for Dijon three years in a row in the World Wide Mustard Competition!
