Like rapeseed, mustard (Sinapis alba) belongs botanically to the cruciferous family. The rapeseed and mustard plants are also visually similar with their yellow flowers. In addition to the well-known edible mustard, a valuable oil with a spicy heat can also be pressed from the mustard seed - a culinary rarity that is very popular in Indian cuisine, but is also ideal for preparing salads and meat and fish dishes in this country.
Mustard oil contains around 14 g per 100 g of omega-3 fatty acids, which is more than in rapeseed or walnut oil, which are also considered good sources of omega-3. Mustard oil also has a balanced ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids. These properties make mustard oil a high-quality and recommendable edible oil.

Safe to enjoy thanks to new varieties
Mustard seeds come in different varieties. There are yellow, brown and black mustard seeds. They differ only slightly in shape and color, but have different properties and ingredients. Although mustard oil has a balanced ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, the seed's erucic acid content is crucial for the production of edible oil. This monounsaturated fatty acid is problematic from a nutritional point of view, as it can lead to pathological changes in the heart muscle, fatty degeneration of the heart and cause growth retardation if consumed in excess.
Ölmühle Solling's organic mustard oil is cold-pressed exclusively from freshly milled yellow mustard seeds of the Martigena variety. This mustard seed is suitable for the production of a safe edible oil and has an extremely low erucic acid content. Thanks to the breeding of new varieties, we now have mustard seeds that have a very low erucic acid content of less than 1% and are therefore suitable for the production of high-quality edible oil. One of these varieties is the yellow mustard variety Martigena. Our valuable mustard oil is therefore safe to consume. Of course, cultivars should not be confused with genetically modified organisms.
Mustard oil in the kitchen
The mustard oil from Ölmühle Solling is characterized by the typical mustard pungency that is also known from horseradish, wasabi, rocket, radish and cress. The mild pungency is due to the natural content of mustard oil glycosides and the isothiocyanates (allyl mustard oil) released from them. Mustard oil enhances fish and meat dishes as well as salad dressings, dips and vegetable dishes and is also popular in Indian cuisine. We also recommend it for preparing potato salad.
Usage
Mustard oil is very popular in Indian and Bengali cuisine. It gives curries and fish dishes, for example, a spicy, piquant aroma. Mustard oil is also highly recommended as a sushi seasoning oil as an alternative to green wasabi paste.
Mustard oil is also ideal in traditional German cuisine, for example as a spicy dip with sour cream, sour cream and mustard oil, or mixed with rapeseed oil in homemade mayonnaise for hearty salads. A tablespoon of mustard oil transforms jam into a particularly tasty accompaniment to cheese.
Mustard oil is also popular for cooking, seasoning and marinating vegetables, for example hot leeks.
