Wholegrain mustard is a condiment made from whole, unground mustard seeds, giving it a coarse texture and a robust, tangy flavor. Unlike smooth mustards, it retains the seeds, which provides a pleasant crunch and a more pronounced "bite". It is versatile, used as a table condiment, in sandwiches, marinades, sauces, and salad dressings.
