Dijon mustard, made with mustard seeds, white wine, and salt, originates from the Dijon region of eastern France. Besides being a great accompaniment to hot dogs, this mustard has a variety of other culinary uses. Let’s learn how today.

Making Salad Dressings, Marinades, Dips, and Drizzles

In addition to oil and vinegar, Dijon mustard is a common condiment in salad dressings. Its rich texture makes it easier for the oil and vinegar to blend together, making the dressing more flavorful.

Dijon mustard can also be added to marinades. For example, marinades made with minced garlic, fresh herbs, red wine, and Dijon mustard are perfect for marinating meats. You can also try adding a little Dijon mustard to your regular marinade.

While Dijon mustard can be used as a dip or drizzle, it can also be seasoned with ingredients like mayonnaise, honey, or jam to enhance the flavor. For the honey mustard sauce recipe, refer to the corresponding recipe above.
