Mustard is used in cooking and as a condiment on almost every continent in the world. It is thought that the Romans were the first to ground mustard seeds into a paste using unfermented grape juice. And the first recipe for mustard was found in an ancient Roman cookbook dating back to the late 4th century.

Of course, Hot Mustard Sauce is the highlight of any authentic Chinese meal. It is perfect for dipping your spring rolls into. So next time you send out for Chinese food, be sure and replace those mild mustard packets with the real thing.

Hot Mustard Sauce is easy to make. When you prepare it yourself, you can easily vary the heat and spices to make it exactly as you like it.
