White mustard seeds (Brassica alba, Sinapis alba)
Because of the color of their flowers, sometimes white mustard is called "yellow" (although black mustard also has yellow flowers).
A simple recipe for homemade mustard sauce:
100g finely ground mustard seeds (white or black or mixed). Add 80ml of water and 60ml vinegar (5% acidity) and mix. Add 1 tablespoon salt and 2-3 tablespoons sugar and stir in the mortar for approx. 5 minutes until all is crushed and blended as a sauce.
Mustard sauce can be kept in small tightly closed glass jars (if poorly closed or once opened it loses its aroma!) Place in the fridge for at least a week so that the sauce acquires its characteristic aroma.
This annual plant is very easy to grow and can also be used as organic fertilizer and reaches a height of 1.20
