About this deal

The shortages in France raise questions over whether the UK market could suffer similar supply issues, though retailers and producers appear calm for now.

On a more refined note, Dijon mustard gets its name from the city of Dijon, where it originated. But there’s no official designation that says that Dijon mustard has to be made in Dijon. In fact, even if the mustard is made in Dijon, France, in most cases, the seeds have been imported from Canada. The Amora brand sells mustard, ketchup, bouillon, salad dressing, and seasonings. [2] [3] The Maille brand sells mustard, sauces, olive oil, and vinegar. [2] [3] Karmel, Elizabeth. "How To Make A Salad You Actually Want To Eat". Forbes . Retrieved 19 April 2022. For a current trip I’m taking, to avoid airport food, I made a sandwich. Since I was en-route to Israel, I though it best to avoid my usual jambon fromage and make a turkey sandwich with cornichons, cheese, egg, and mustard.

Speaking of tomatoes and vegetables, we've got a wide range to choose from. Create vibrant salads, hearty stews, or homemade pasta sauces with our fresh and flavourful tomatoes and vegetables. Where to find it: Amora is supremely easy to find in any market in France, and you can find them in some supermarkets in England.

In August 2018, foodwatch (a European advocacy group focused on consumer rights), accused Amora of false advertising for its "Mustard Vinaigrette" salad dressing product, which was found to contain only 0.7% mustard and mustard seeds not sourced from Dijon. [10] See also [ edit ] But most French people can’t get enough Dijon mustard, and it’s part of the classic bistro tabletop trio along with salt and pepper. A dab of Dijon is used a condiment alongside a plate of meat, sausages, and poultry, and as a base for vinaigrette; Romain always tells me to add more mustard when making the sauce for the salad. And a commenter found the amount of mustard in a recent salad recipe that I posted to be overwhelming. We probably go through half a jar a week and if Romain had his way, it’d be a full jar. Thankfully, Amora mustard is inexpensive in France: a jumbo glass jar costs around 99 cents. The travel-friendly squeeze bottles come with at a slightly premium price of around €1,39.

Burgundy-based dijon producer Edmond Fallot also said additional cost pressures around raw materials were having an impact on production. Morrison’s described it as “as industry-wide issue”, while a spokesperson for Waitrose said they were working with suppliers but “currently [had] a wide range of brands available”. The British Retail Consortium, which represents UK retailers, said the impact was “very limited at the moment”. And he’s not just making mustard on those visits, either. “He’s also our electrician,” pipes in Florine Humbert, store manager.

Jaffin, Robin (8 October 2018). "Burgundy's Last Independent Mustard Factory Will Make Your Eyes Water". Vice News . Retrieved 24 March 2021. Sold in an iconic stoneware jar, Pommery’s Moutarde de Meaux has been made in the city of Meaux since the 1700s. Pommery’s original mustard is a grainy, stone-ground mustard that has a richer and deeper flavor than Dijon. In addition to their traditional recipe, Pommery also has variations made with ingredients like honey, cognac, fig, truffle, or green peppercorn. There is also a more finely ground version, called “fine” that’s a traditional Dijon. For meat lovers, our selection of cold meats is a carnivore's dream. From thinly sliced deli meats for sandwiches to flavourful sausages for grilling, we've got a variety that will satisfy your meaty cravings. When it's time to sweeten the deal, turn to our fresh and juicy fruits. Whether you're into crisp apples, succulent berries, or tropical delights, our fruit selection is a vibrant bounty of nature's sweetness. Yes, I think I was aware that the spices were all coming from France at the time of my visit — but have since forgot. That is interesting indeed (especially considering that other mustards get their seeds from Canada)! Something I learned there is that mustard is at its strongest in the beginning; at the top of the jar. I suppose you know this already (and perhaps know the exact reasons why).
