Mustard oil
Mustard oil can mean either the pressed oil used for cooking, or a pungent essential oil also known as volatile oil of mustard. The essential oil results from grinding mustard seed, mixing the grounds with water, and extracting the resulting volatile oil by distillation. It can also be produced by dry distillation of the seed. Pressed mustard oil is used as cooking oil in some cultures, but sale is restricted in some countries due to high levels of erucic acid. Varieties of mustard seed also exist that are low in erucic acid.

mustard oil
Mustard oil is a type of edible oil extracted from mustard seeds, specifically black, brown, and white mustard seeds. These seeds are typically cold-pressed to produce a pungent, strong-flavored oil. It is a common cooking oil in many South Asian, Southeast Asian, and Mediterranean cuisines. Apart from culinary uses, mustard oil is also known for its medicinal and therapeutic properties, and sometimes used in massages and skin/hair treatments. Its properties include being antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and having high levels of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
