About Mostaza

Mostaza, commonly known as mustard, is a condiment made from ground mustard seeds mixed with vinegar, water, and various spices. Originating from ancient Roman cuisine, mustard has become a staple in many global dishes, particularly in European and American cooking. Its distinct tangy flavor pairs well with meats, sandwiches, and salads. Nutritionally, mustard is low in calories and fat, making it a healthier alternative to heavier condiments. It contains beneficial compounds like glucosinolates and antioxidants, which may support immune health. Mustard seeds are also a source of minerals such as selenium and magnesium. However, some commercial varieties may be high in sodium or contain added sugars, which can impact heart health if consumed in excess. Opting for simple or homemade versions can help retain its nutritional benefits. Its bold taste makes it a flavorful addition without compromising calorie intake.
