Description
Mustard powder is finely ground mustard seed, which comes from three species of mustard plants, including yellow mustard, brown mustard and black mustard. Mustard powder contains the same nutrients that are found in the whole mustard seed and has several nutritional benefits. In powdered form, mustard has no smell when dry, but it has a hot flavor when mixed with water.
Mustard seeds contain high amounts of phytonutrients, particularly glucosinolates, according to a 1990 study published in “Plant Science.” Glucosinolates are a sugar-derived compound that is found naturally in many flowering plants. A study published by the “International Journal of Vitamin and Nutrition Research” in 2002 found that glucosinolates found in plants may have a protective effect against certain types of cancer, especially lung cancer.
