Mustard  Mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. & Coss., Sinapis alba L.]

• Mustard is both a condiment and an oilseed crop
• The term 'mustard' is believed to be derived from the use of the seeds as condiment; the sweet 'must' of old wine was mixed with crushed seeds to form a paste.
• Within the condiment mustards all have high glucosinolate levels and the oil is neither canola nor industrial quality. There is Yellow Mustard (or white mustard), Sinapis alba, and Oriental Mustard, Brassica juncea (yellow and brown seeded varieties) developed between the cross Brassica rapa (canola-cabbage, kohlrabi, etc.) X Brassica nigra (Black mustard-weed).
• India is one of the major countries producing mustard
•  Mustard seeds are mainly used for the extraction of edible oil.
• Mustard powder is used as a condiment in pickles, meat and salad dressings
• Mustard seed can also be milled into mustard flour and used as an ingredient in processed foods, such as salad dressings and soups.
• A technology for processing mustard into powder form has been
  developed and is being offered
• Scientists have developed yellow mustard varieties that have the potential to significantly reduce the cost of the oil used in biodiesel production
• Black mustard contains mucilage, fixed oil, volatile oil, sinigrin. Actions: rubefacient, irritant, stimulant, diuretic, emetic.
• In several epidemiology studies,
  exposure to mustard gas (through military use or occupationally) was
  associated with an increased risk of lung or other respiratory-tract
