What goes with Mustard Oil?
Culinary mustard oil is an expressed seed oil with a distinct pungent finish, not prepared mustard sauce and not concentrated mustard essential oil. Select a food-grade product sold for eating in the serving market and follow its label. The reference form is unflavoured and assertive: it contributes persistent fat together with a much quicker, nose-reaching seed sensation.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Mustard Oil?
Starchy potato, cooked leafy greens, fish and fresh curd provide enough substance to carry the oil without becoming dominated by it. Fruit sweetness or jaggery can frame its pungency, but sweetness does not remove the fat. Work through a coating, dressing or emulsion whose dose can be controlled, especially with salty cheese or cured meat.
