The history of mustard

Did you know …

Prepared mustard dates back thousands of years to

the early Romans, who used to grind mustard seeds

and mix them with wine into a paste not much

different from the prepared mustards we know today.

German lore advises a bride to sew mustard seeds

into the hem of her wedding dress to assure her

dominance of the household.

In Denmark, and India, it's thought that spreading

mustard seeds around the exterior of the home will

keep out evil spirits.
