  1. I have a recipe that calls for "mustard oil". never tasted it.

    I do have some black mustard seeds......could I maybe crush some seeds in a
    bit of canola and strain?

    Or maybe crush some seeds and leave in the oil overnight?

    Those ideas won't work. You can purchase mustard oil at an Indian grocery.
    It will be marked "for external use only". It also isn't very hot and has
    poor flavor. Good mustard oil can only be gotten in India. It is very hot!
    It has its own flavor which can't really be replaced satisfactorily. You can
    use canola and add a little dry English mustard to the dish. You can use
    chile oil in some recipes -- just make sure it is hot chile oil.
    I can't understand why Canada with its huge mustard crop doesn't produce
    mustard oil.

    Mustard oil is available in Oz these days from Yandilla Mustard Seed
    Oil Pty Ltd <http://www.yandilla.com/home.htm>
    They claim to produce a special "cold-pressed, low erucic acid mustard
    oil" based on a low erucic acid cultivar bred by CSIRO.

    It's available in both "pungent" and "nutty" types [see the web site
    for descriptions of these forms]. I think they supply retail by mail
    order (but maybe not to the USA 🙂. You may also be able to find it
    at a local deli (or talk the owner into stocking it :-). I'm told
    there's an Indian deli in the tourist ghetto of Cairns that stocks
    mustard oil, but I don't know where they source the stuff.

    It seems that the stuff is pretty well essential for some Indian
    recipes and no substitute can be tolerated. For example, one bloke I
    know who's into "Indian food" told me his pickled limes were *never*
    any good until he started using the right oil in the process.

    None of which is probably of the slightest use to Michael. Sorry
    about that, mate.

    Cheers, Phred.

  4. Yeah....it's for an Indian dish.

    I'll try the chili oil...I think it makes sense for this recipe.

    Thanks.

    Phred, I must admit whenever I see you write "Oz," I always think you are
    playfully referring to Australia as the "Land of Oz."
    One thing that helps that impression along, is that I've only met a few
    Australians and they were all quite jolly.

    Given a few Bengali and Bihari recipes, I have seen, that call for
    mustard oil, chilli oil could not be considered a substitute.

    The only oil that has reminded me of the pungency, has been some
    unfiltered olive oils I have tasted on farms. And even then the
    similarity ended with a vague initial resemblance.

    Some Indian or Pakistani shops in the west are clear enough to label
    their product as mustard flavoured oils - as I started frequenting some
    of the stores, the shop - keepers would tell me whether the oil was true
    mustard oil.

    Another thing to watch for, is adulteration of mustard oil - somewhat
    common in northern India and not infrequently hits the local news there
    because of cases of dropsy.

    [snip]

    G'day Dee Dee and Wayne,

    Amazing what flavours a smidgen of mustard will bring out! ;-)
    But, yes, when I refer to "Oz" I often wonder if people will think of
    it in terms of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". [See
    <http://www.cs.cmu.edu/People/rgs/wizoz10.html>
    for a hypertext formatted version of the Project Gutenberg edition.]
    Harburg's lyrics for the movie (including "The Land of Oz"😉 are at:
    <http://thewizardofoz.warnerbros.com/movie/cmp/r-lyrics.html>

    However, the main reason I use "Oz" is that I'm a reactionary bugger
    and "oz" was the early name space used for Australia back before "The
    Internet". I think it was still in use when I first got involved in
    USENET discussions some time ago. :-) The term seems to survive as
    oz.au for the subdomain within ACSnet (the Australian Computer
    Society network -- if I haven't got my acronyms crossed 8-).
    See: <http://www.aunic.net/policies.html> for current .au subdomains.

    Mustard Oil Dressing [Something of a misnomer in my book.]
    ====================
    INGREDIENTS:
    1 1/2 tablespoons prepared Dijon-style mustard
    1/2 cup vegetable oil
    1/2 cup red wine vinegar
    1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 pinch garlic salt
    1 pinch onion powder
    1/4 cup olive oil

    DIRECTIONS:
    In a jar with a lid, combine the mustard, vegetable oil, vinegar,
    pepper, salt, garlic salt, onion powder and olive oil. Cover and shake

    do the job instead of the combination Dijon mustard + vegetable oil.
    (But half a cup of the stuff would be pretty expensive on the local
    scene at around $4.00, so it would want to be good!)

    Phred, my head is spinning! Is this a stretch? Or are you thinking outside
    the envelope?

    Phred, I must admit whenever I see you write "Oz," I always think you
    are playfully referring to Australia as the "Land of Oz."
    One thing that helps that impression along, is that I've only met a
    few Australians and they were all quite jolly.

    [snip]

    G'day Dee Dee and Wayne,

    Amazing what flavours a smidgen of mustard will bring out! ;-)
    But, yes, when I refer to "Oz" I often wonder if people will think of
    it in terms of "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz". [See
    <http://www.cs.cmu.edu/People/rgs/wizoz10.html>
    for a hypertext formatted version of the Project Gutenberg edition.]
    Harburg's lyrics for the movie (including "The Land of Oz"😉 are at:
    <http://thewizardofoz.warnerbros.com/movie/cmp/r-lyrics.html>

    I have a copy of every "Oz" book that L. Frank Baum ever penned. That as
    some of my major childhood reading.

    However, the main reason I use "Oz" is that I'm a reactionary bugger
    and "oz" was the early name space used for Australia back before "The
    Internet". I think it was still in use when I first got involved in
    USENET discussions some time ago. :-) The term seems to survive as
    oz.au for the subdomain within ACSnet (the Australian Computer
    Society network -- if I haven't got my acronyms crossed 8-).
    See: <http://www.aunic.net/policies.html> for current .au subdomains.

    I have heard it before, but i always thought it was just an affectionate
    term.

    The same thought struck me right after I hit "Send". I think the
    "nutty" type would be better for a dressing -- after all, that
    "Dijon-style mustard" is pretty bloody innocuous. (Had some on cold
    ham this evening and might as well not have bothered -- I usually use
    that "English Hot Mustard", but was out of stock.)

    [And, Dee, if you're listening, I'm not sure how to respond! 8-) ]

    Cheers, Phred.
