Flavor Profile

Hot Mustard Powder delivers a sharp bite and aroma similar to horseradish, so it goes up the nose and sinuses.

How To Use

Mix Hot Mustard Powder with an equal amount of cold water to create spicy-hot Chinese-style mustard; standard mixed hot mustard will stay viable in your refrigerator for up to one year. But, this seasoning is good for more than just a dipping mustard. Try adding it to a seasoning for hot wings, or spread it over brisket. One of our customers loves to add Hot Mustard Powder to his dry rub for ribs. It’s a savory, spicy addition to potato gratin or broccoli-cheese soup. Try adding it to some savory muffins or a Cornish pastie.

Choose to substitute Hot Mustard Powder in any recipe that calls for Mustard Powder when you want to add some serious kick. 

Hot Mustard Powder pairs well with sugar, tarragon, fruits, beans, pork, seafood, and other warm spices like black pepper, white pepper, and chiles.
