Mustard Seeds Medium

A robust, pungent spice with a warm, earthy sharpness, medium (brown) mustard seeds are a staple across Indian and South Asian cooking. When added to hot oil, they crackle and pop, releasing a nutty aroma that forms the flavorful base of many curries and pickles.

Flavours: Pungent, earthy, nutty, with a warm sharp bite

How to Use: Add whole seeds to hot oil at the start of cooking and let them sputter and pop (tempering) before adding curry leaves, cumin, or other aromatics. Widely used in curries, pickles, dals, and vegetable stir-fries to build a rich, aromatic foundation.
