Yellow mustard seeds are one of the most popular and widely used varieties of mustard. They have a pungent and spicy bite but are milder than their close relative, brown mustard seeds. Grinding the seeds will increase their pungency for a more piquant flavor. Yellow mustard seeds are an important spice in many regional foods and recipes ranging from condiments, hollandaise dressing, soups, sauces, marinades, pickling blends, and rubs. Fresh spring mustard greens are often added to salads for a slight, spicy bite.

Mustard Seed is low in Saturated Fat, and very low in Cholesterol and Sodium. It is a good source of Dietary Fiber, Protein, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, and Manganese, and a good source of Selenium.

Yellow mustard seeds can be used in a diverse array of culinary dishes and body care recipes, including herbal baths, foot soaks, and massage oils. You can add the whole seeds to a hot pan until they start popping, and start adding the rest of ingredients - for soups, stews and pasta sauce.
