FAQ
Why do mustard seeds need to be popped in oil?
Popping mustard seeds in hot oil (a technique called tempering) is essential to activate and release their complex nutty and peppery flavor compounds. Raw mustard seeds have a sharp, bitter taste; the heat of the oil transforms them into a rich, mellow, and aromatic spice that flavors the whole dish.
