Mustard oil is a deep amber oil with a strong, pungent aroma and a sharp, distinctive flavour. It has a thicker consistency than many cooking oils, and its heat mellows the pungency, leaving a warm, nutty background note. This oil is a familiar base in Bengali, Punjabi and Pakistani kitchens. Use it for tempering spices at the start of a curry, frying fish, or stirring through pickles and chutneys for depth of flavour. It also works well brushed over vegetables before roasting or used in marinades for meat and paneer. Heat the oil until it reaches smoking point before adding whole spices, then let it cool slightly before continuing with the recipe — this step softens the raw sharpness and brings out its characteristic flavour. Store the bottle in a cool, dark cupboard away from direct sunlight, and keep the cap tightly closed after use to preserve its aroma.
