Title: Spices
In today’s reading I read about Mustard. I learned that mustard first came from Mediterranean countries. Mustards name came from mustard seeds with grape juice. Mustard- “must” means grape juice and “ard” comes from to burn. Mustard is very hot. I read that there are two types of mustards seeds, brown and white. It says that brown mustard has a stronger taste. The white mustard is milder. I personally don’t like either of them ,except for the spicy brown mustard! I can only put a little bit on my hotdog. I prefer ketchup over mustard.
There are three kinds of mustard, English, French and American. Americans mostly put mustard on their sandwiches, hotdogs, and burgers.
What I didn’t know before was that mustard use to be used to ease muscle pain. If you had a sore muscle, mustard would then be wrapped in cloth around your muscle pain. I can’t imagine wrapping a piece of mustard cloth on my ankle when I sprained it. It must smell afterwards!
One thing I found most interesting is that mustard was believed to ease headaches and colds. Next time when a student complains that they have a headache I am going to tll them to go and smell a packet of mustard!!
