Mustard: A Big Family With A Spicy Cousin
Manage episode 346979050 series 3275799
Mustard is a really unique spice in that it grows pretty much anywhere you'll let it, it's even invasive in a lot of places! This week we explore how the three main varieties of mustard came to be and how we use them today. We also touch on the importance of taxonomy, some religious stories around mustard and how to cook with it. As always, hit me up on Instagram @planetpantrypod with any corrections, notes or ideas for future episodes. I hope you learn something from this episode because I sure did and we're all learning together about the wonderful world of pantry staples. Below are some of the sources I used to research this episode, I'm not great at recording all of the sources that I go to and the character limit here doesn't fit all of the ones that I did record. But there are a few fun rabbit holes to dive into here so go nuts and feel free to reach out if you're wondering where I got a specific piece of information and I'll do my best to find out
