Black Mustard Seeds

1) What are Black Mustard Seeds?

Black Mustard Seeds are actually found in the mustard plant (also known as Brassica nigra). They are tiny, black seeds with a robust flavor — the flavor is even stronger when they are toasted. Its taste, on the other hand, is frequently bolder than that of yellow mustard seed and is favored by many chefs and food processing companies for pickles, spice mixes, etc.
