Organic Brown Mustard Seeds, Brassica juncea, are also known as organic mustard brown. They have a volatile oil content of 0.5%-1.2%.

Benjamin Franklin was believed to have brought mustard back to the US when he returned from a trip to Paris in 1758. During WWII, mustard seeds' availability in the United States was scarce. After the war ended, mustard seed became a specialty crop in North America.

Organic Brown Mustard Seeds are popular with pizza restaurants, specialty shops, and oil and pickling manufacturers.

We also carry Yellow Mustard Seed, Black Mustard Seed, and non-organic Brown Mustard Seeds.

Flavor Profile

Organic Brown Mustard Seeds taste slightly bitter and pungent with a mild heat. Dry roasting mustard seeds will help bring out their aroma and flavor.
