Mustard: The Herb

Mustard is an annual herb that belongs to the genus Brassica (the same family that includes cabbage, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts). It is usually described in terms of the color of its seeds: black mustard (Brassica nigra); brown mustard (Brassica juncea); and pale yellow mustard (Sinapis alba). The black mustard plant can grow to nearly twelve feet high, but the more restrained brown and yellow mustards top out at three feet. Black mustard seeds are the smallest, brown are middle-sized, and yellow are the largest. In terms of intensity, however, the smallest (black) seeds are the hottest and the largest (yellow) the mildest. Black mustard seeds are very difficult to find, since they must be harvested by hand and are less viable commercially than brown and yellow mustard seeds.
