FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long does stone-ground mustard last after opening?
When refrigerated, it typically maintains its best quality for 12 to 18 months, though it remains safe to eat longer.
What is the difference between stone-ground and Dijon mustard?
Stone-ground mustard uses whole seeds crushed between stones for a coarse texture, while Dijon is smooth and uses verjuice or white wine.
Can I freeze stone-ground mustard?
It is not recommended as freezing can cause the emulsion to break and significantly alter the texture.
What can I use as a substitute for stone-ground mustard?
Whole grain mustard is the best substitute. Dijon mustard can be used if texture is not a concern.
Is stone-ground mustard gluten-free?
Most brands are naturally gluten-free, but always check the label for malt vinegar or wheat-based thickeners.
Why does my mustard have liquid on top?
Natural separation occurs over time. Simply stir the liquid back into the mustard before using.
How do I identify a high-quality stone-ground mustard?
Look for visible whole or cracked mustard seeds and a short ingredient list without artificial thickeners or colors.
Is stone-ground mustard spicy?
It generally has a medium heat profile, more pungent than yellow mustard but often less sharp than hot English mustard.
Does stone-ground mustard contain sugar?
Standard stone-ground mustard contains very little sugar, though some 'sweet' varieties may add honey or brown sugar.
