Tag: Verjuice

Dijon mustard has been a staple condiment for centuries, with records dating back to 1336 when it was served to King Philip VI. A common ingredient in traditional recipes is white wine, which contributes to its signature tangy flavor.

Historically, Dijon mustard was made with verjuice, but today, most recipes use a combination of white wine and vinegar, which is what is the liquid in Dijon mustard. This unique liquid blend, when combined with brown or black mustard seeds, contributes to its signature sharp and complex flavor profile.
