About
Mustard seeds may be colored from yellowish white to black.
They are important spices in many regional cuisines. The seeds can come from three different plants: black mustard, brown Indian mustard, and white mustard.
Mustard seeds generally take three to ten days to germinate if placed under the proper conditions, which include a cold atmosphere and relatively moist soil. Mature mustard plants grow into shrubs.
Mustard grows well in temperate regions. Major producers of mustard seeds include Canada (90%), Hungary, Great Britain, India, Pakistan and the United States.
Brown and black mustard seeds return higher yields than their yellow counterparts.
