Mustard Seeds By Bilnath Traders

Derived from the many varieties of mustard plants, mustard seeds are very small seeds, about 2 mm in diameter, and seen in colors ranging from yellowish white to black. They are one of the most important ingredients used in many regional cuisines across the world, especially in the Indian sub-continent. Mustard seeds can be used either in whole form or in powdered form. Although there exist around forty different types of mustard plants, the mustard seeds are primarily derived from three main types of mustard plants. These three plants are black mustard plant, also known as Brassica Nigra; brown Indian mustard, also known as Brassica juncea; and white or yellow mustard also called Brassica Hirta/Sinapis Alba.
