How mustard is made

The different types of mustard

As different the tastes, so different the varieties. While people in the west and north prefer hot or strong mustard, people in the south prefer to season with mild or otherwise sweet mustard.

Medium hot mustard

… is known as delicatessen mustard or table mustard. It is mainly made from mild yellow mustard seeds. The small amount of brown mustard seed gives it the desired spiciness: rather mild or medium hot.

Hot mustard

… is made exclusively from brown mustard seed. Its typical pungency is due to the mustard oil that develops when the brown mustard seeds are ground.

Düsseldorf mustard

This mustard is characterized by its special pungency. During its processing, the freshly ground mustard seeds are not de-oiled. This gives the mustard its characteristic aroma. According to the law, only manufacturers from the Düsseldorf area are allowed to produce this specialty.
