We got inspired by Dave Chang and pickled some white mustard to have a ready condiment for grilled meat or veggies. These little orbs turn into delicious flavour bombs once they are simmered in some rice wine vinegar.
about the spice
White mustard (sada shorshe) is actually yellowish brown in colour and packs less pungency than its darker cousin, the brown/black mustard. Seemingly aroma-less, white mustard releases its pungent, earthy aroma once soaked and ground.

what you can cook with
The quintessential Bengali flavour profile is “mustardy”. Ground white mustard can pepper up any citrusy, earthy spice mix. Or you can keep it minimal to let it shine on its own, like we did.
