French's Stone Ground Dijon Mustard, 12 oz
What it is
This is a classic Dijon mustard made with coarsely ground mustard seeds. It offers a robust flavor profile with a pleasant tang and a slightly grainy texture. The stone grinding process helps to retain more of the natural oils from the mustard seeds, contributing to its distinct taste and aroma. It is a versatile condiment that adds a sophisticated touch to many dishes.
How people cook with it

Incorporate this stone ground Dijon mustard into your cooking to elevate everyday dishes. It can be whisked into vinaigrettes for a zesty salad dressing or blended into mayonnaise for a flavorful sandwich spread. For a more intense flavor, use it as a base for marinades for chicken, pork, or beef, allowing the tangy notes to tenderize and infuse the meat. It also works wonderfully as a glaze for roasted vegetables or as a key ingredient in creamy sauces and dips, adding a sophisticated kick.
