What it is
This is a classic Dijon mustard made with coarsely ground mustard seeds. It offers a robust flavor profile with a balance of tanginess and a hint of spice. The stone-ground texture provides a pleasing coarseness that adds visual appeal and a more complex mouthfeel compared to smoother mustards. It is a versatile condiment that elevates a wide range of dishes with its distinctive taste.
How people cook with it

Spread it directly onto sandwiches and burgers for an immediate flavor boost.

It is also excellent when incorporated into marinades for meats, poultry, and fish, helping to tenderize and infuse them with its characteristic tang. For a quick sauce, blend it with mayonnaise or sour cream.

This texture also contributes to a slightly different flavor release, often perceived as more nuanced and less intensely sharp than its finely milled counterparts.
