  1. I ran across and interesting sounding recipe for broccoli
    slaw (foodnetwork.com0,,FOO
    D_9936_22759,00.html). It calls for Coleman's mustard. I am
    having a hard time figuring out what the recipe is looking
    for? Yellow mustard? Dijon-style mustard? Dry mustard?
    Searching for "Coleman's mustard" didn't provide much
    insight. Any pointers would be appreciated!

    Coleman is merely a *brand* name. Any mustard powder will
    do... choose one according to your taste, you will need to
    experiment.

    Penzeys offers a fine array of mustards at very reasonable
    prices, and since they're freshly ground they are far
    better quality than any packaged, undated, stupidmarket
    dreck brands.

    If I saw it, I'd assume prepared mustard, not the powder
    form. Colman's (no 'e' there) is a brand name. Hot stuff.

    Shame they misspelt the name: it's Colman's.

    My first guess would be the prepared Colman's mustard. A
    teaspoon of fresh dry mustard would probably overwhelm
    the dressing.

    Any Dijon-style mustard would taste good in that dressing.
    Skip the yellow mustard.

    Great! I just wasn't sure if the author meant dry mustard
    poweder or prepared mustard. Searcing the web for "Coleman's
    mustard" indicated that both were possibilities!

    Yeah. I lived in Milwaukee for a while when growing up and I

    Coleman's mustard powder.

    Not necessarily. Coleman's also produces a prepared mustard
    in a jar. It's much stronger than typical yellow mustard,
    but not the flavor of Dijon-style. If you can't find it, I
    would substitute prepared Chinese- style mustard and
    probably reduce the amount. Coleman's is on the hot side,
    but not as hot as Chinese.

    Coleman's mustard powder.

    Keen's bought out Coleman's, it is now marketed under Keenes
    Dry Mustard in the same old bright yellow tin. Tastes
    exactly the same too. Usually in the spice section of any
    stupidmarket.

    All 'o yoose... it's far easier to find Colman's info when

    This is from the idiot who, in another post, wrote:

    "Coleman is merely a *brand* name.", which is even worse
    spelling than "Coleman's".

    Deep down inside, though, Sheldon is really a nice

    It means dry. Any ground yellow mustard seed will do.
    Colman's is one alternative but there are others. I just
    grind up yellow mustard seeds myself.

    D'oh indeed! For what it's worth I've lived in the UK all my
    life, I've bought Colman's both wet and dry mustard for
    years and - I HAD ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WAS COLEMAN"S WITH AN
    'E' AS WELL!

    Just out of interest, a 170g jar of Colman's English Mustard
    is £0.98 ($1.80) on the shelves of my local supermarket.

    That just looks like powdered mustard to me (which is
    what Colman's dry mustard is). The ingredient on my box
    of Colman's dry mustard reads "Ingredients: mustard
    flour" so you'd probably be just as well buying yellow
    mustard seed and grinding it up with your pestle and
    mortar as you require!

    Hard to tell. The recipe could be calling for either. In the
    final analysis does it really matter? Just add your
    favourite hot mustard to taste. After all, it's you that'll
    be eating it!

    And you can substantiate that claim... point us to
    corroborative internet references.

    I don't know about Keene's, but Colman's is part of Van
    den Bergh's over here (I'll post a picture of the label on
    the box if you like, though not on this ng).

    Yes... all part of Unilever, the same people who make soap
    LOL! The Colmans still have a very nice house in
    Hampshire, so somewhere along the line they have done well
    selling the name.

    However the Colman concern was in Norwich, and the box

    Well yes... that's where the mustard seed was traditionally
    grown. Suspect a lot of the seed is imported these days.
    Don't know why the Colman estate is in Hampshire, but it's a
    quite a nice place. Still a working estate as well, doing a
    nice line in frozen peas.

    Yes. We had only been here a couple of months when we
    combined with another family with kids and went on a Sunday
    picnic. We were gone from about 10 a.m. til dark and my
    husband remarked when we got out of the car that we had done
    Portsmouth to John O'Groats and then some, for a picnic.
    Never even really noticed it either.
