Brown mustard seed is hotter and more pungent than regular yellow mustard and is most commonly used in Indian cuisine. They are often toasted or fried in oil with other spices before adding to recipes. They make a delicious addition to home-made mustard, chutney, relish and curry.
Spices and herbs should be stored away from light, heat and moisture. However, storing spices in the refrigerator or freezer may actually shorten their shelf life and they risk picking up other food odors. In general, whole spices have a longer shelf life than ground spices. Depending on the spice and how well it is stored, a good rule of thumb is six months to a year for powdered spices and longer for whole spices and seeds. The best way to determine if your spices or herbs are still fresh is to close your eyes and sniff – if you cannot immediately tell what the herb or spice is, toss it!
