Creole mustard is a condiment found most commonly in the Southeastern region of the United States, specifically Louisiana. A staple in New Orleans-style cuisine, Creole mustard is a blend of Spanish, French, African, and German influences.
The mustard is traditionally made with
white wine vinegar, horseradish and assorted spices before being packed or ground.[1][2] It owes its grainy appearance to the use of coarse-ground mustard seeds.[3]
Creole mustard is a versatile condiment featured on
marinade for meats, and can be incorporated into seafood dishes, such as crab cakes, battered seafood or served as a glaze or dipping sauce, as well. It is also the key ingredient found in New Orleans-style or Creole-style remoulade
sauce.
