Brooklyn-based company 'Tin Mustard,' recently launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund its new dry mustard blend. The company has been producing artisanal mustards since 2011 and now it is eager to introduce a new product to its existing line.
The new product is a dry mustard spice blend that is full of flavor and perfect for enhancing any dish. The dry mustard contains a mix of traditional mustard powder, whole and cracked brown and yellow mustard seeds, sea salt and a distinct blend of additional spices. Unlike traditional mustard, which is used as a condiment, the dry mustard blend is better used as a form of spice. The company suggests that its new product can be used on anything from chicken wings to roasted vegetables.
