Black Mustard Seeds – Brassica nigra

Black mustard seeds (Brassica nigra) are one of the oldest cultivated spices, valued across traditional European and Asian practices for their intense aroma, natural warmth, and stimulating character. The small dark seeds offer a sharp, pungent flavor that awakens the senses and has long been appreciated in both culinary traditions and herbal wellness rituals. Their robust, earthy heat develops fully when crushed or gently warmed, releasing a distinctive mustard aroma.

Traditionally used in cooking, fermentation, and herbal preparations, black mustard seeds are commonly added to pickles, vegetables, sauces, and homemade mustards, or infused as a warming herbal tea. Sourced from India and packed in small batches in a kraft pouch, they are carefully handled to preserve freshness and natural potency. For culinary and educational use only.
