Moutarde de Meaux Pommery wholegrain mustard

The recipe for Moutarde de Meaux wholegrain mustard has been around since at least 1632 and hasn’t changed a beat. Centuries ago, the mustard could be found on the dining tables of the French royal court and was considered the ‘mustard of gourmets’ by the culinary connoisseur Brillat-Savarin.

The word ‘moutarde’ has its origins from two Latin words (mustum ardens). This translates to ‘the burning must’, as mustard was always created from a base of must, or unfermented grape juice. Others reference the reign of Duke Philippe the Téméraire, Duke of Burgundy, who granted the city of Dijon various rights in 1382 , including that of carrying his arms with his motto: ‘Moult me tarde’. Moutarde eventually evolved into the English ‘mustard’.
