Ground Mustard
Ground mustard is also called powdered mustard, mustard powder or mustard flour. It is made by grinding mustard seeds and then sifting the seed coat out to leave a fine powder behind. This powder is not as pungent or potent as whole mustard seeds.

Ground mustard can be stored in an airtight container in a dry, dark place for up to 6 months.

Cooking with Ground Mustard
The flavor of ground mustard develops when soaked in liquid to bring out the pungent compounds. It is commonly used in spice rubs, salad dressings, soups, and to add an acidic component to cut through rich sauces like for macaroni and cheese.
Prepared mustards are generally made from ground mustard, seasonings, and water, alcohol, or an acid.
