Why does it deserve our mention? Because of their artisanal stone mill production
method and their more than 150 years of history in the heart of Burgundy. Grains of mustard are known to have been used
by the Chinese, Greeks and Romans in antiquity.
But it was the Greeks and Romans who spread the use, first as medicine
and then later in cooking. Very few producers
maintain, as is the case at Fallot, a stone mill to grind the grains of
mustard, something that undoubtedly gives it a special flavor. Maison Fallot is the last independent,
family-owned mustard producer or moutadiere
still existing. It’s important to know
that Dijon mustard is a recipe, not a Designation of Origin, so it can be made
in any town in France, or in the world.
Only Beaune Mustard has a Designation of Origen. Fallot’s Dijon mustard uses ingredients like
mustard grains, water, vinegar, salt, sugar and spices and of course, 15% white
wine. Enjoy it with your favorite dish!
How should you eat or cook it? With meat, it’s also ideal with
vinaigrettes and as an ingredient in many sauces.
What wine should you drink with it? In this case, it’s better to drink
beer, because of the vinegar.
How should you keep it? In a cool, dry place, and, once open,
in the refrigerator.
