Thanks to Christie Communications for today's recipes!

I don't know about you, but the 'little yellow box' of Colman's Mustard has been a fixture in house for as long as I can remember, and was in my grandmother's before that! Which is no surprise since they've been in business since 1814!


Colman’s uses only the finest proprietary blend of brown and white mustard seeds grown locally around the factory in Norwich, England.  The smoldering heat and sensational quality combine to create a unique flavor that’s undeniably versatile and goes far beyond just another condiment in the cupboard. In fact, it's the only one we use to make homemade Tartar sauce! 

Choose from Colman’s Original Prepared Mustard for a fresh ingredient that turns up the taste when added to vinaigrette or when stirred into a creamy dressing. If the recipe calls for just a pinch, reach for Colman’s Dry Mustard Powder for a high quality flavorful alternative.

Just a dash of Colman’s Mustard is all it takes to make a zesty, nutritious, gourmet vinaigrette dressing at home. Those that prefer an even hotter taste can try Colman’s Chili Vinaigrette, while those looking for a milder, refreshing salad topper can experiment with Colman’s Zesty Salad Dressing

Either way, with Colman’s Mustard there is no excuse to get bored or frustrated when trying to eat more salads in an effort to get ready for the up-coming summer season. In fact, Colman’s Mustard has less than 15 calories and only 0.8 grams of fat per teaspoon!
