CHEF’S TAKE
El aceite de mostaza TEZ está elaborado con semillas de mostaza seleccionadas de primera calidad, procesadas para conservar sus micronutrientes y antioxidantes. Me lo recomendaron algunos de los mejores chefs editoriales de la India y, después de probarlo un rato, tengo que decir que es una buena adición de un sabor único a mi creciente gama de aceites.
El aceite de mostaza tiene un sabor fuerte y picante, ideal para los paladares europeos/occidentales cuando se utiliza como el aceite de sésamo, con moderación con otros aceites, vinagres u otros condimentos. Algunas subculturas indias fríen con él, confiriendo el sabor a mostaza a una gran variedad de alimentos.
I use it for everything from salad dressings to burgers to fried vegetable fritters, to a riff in my basic mayo and, across the board, it imparts a flavor that using dry, ground, or prepared won’t (I know, I know, but I have to do it!) cut the mustard.
You may wonder why I’m recommending Tez Mustard Oil as a cooking oil when you’ll buy it and the American label plastered over its nutrition information says “For External Use Only.” Mustard oil, like avocado oil before it, is a culinary world wonder that has been both misunderstood, mislabeled, and mistreated.
Mustard oil is a culinary staple in India, but here, in America, it became sidelined by an old FDA report with a dubious study from years ago about heart health. The fact that millions of people consume it every day, and in limited quantities, and more current studies show that it helps strengthen red blood cells and lower bad cholesterol should help sway you, or that pro chefs have been using it for a long time. Not convinced yet?
El informe actual de la Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos de 2015 muestra el aceite de mostaza en la lista GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) y afirma:
“The available information shows that the characteristic isothiocyanates, other known constituents, and decomposition products of the essential oils of both mustards, have low orders of oral toxicity in experimental animals. Further, there is no reported evidence that orally administered doses of these constituents are carcinogenic, teratogenic, or mutagenic… There is no evidence in the available information on allyl isothiocyanate, p-hydroxybenzyl isothiocyanate, and brown and yellow mustard that demonstrates, or suggests reasonable grounds to suspect, a hazard to the public when they are used at levels that are now current or that might reasonably be expected in the future.”
Dónde conseguirlo: Disponible en los mercados indios y en línea en Amazon.es.
Le doy mi 5-Diamond Choicestuff™ Award ya que es una especie de Virgen Extra de los aceites de mostaza. He probado un par de otros aceites de mostaza disponibles, incluyendo Dabur y Laxmi y yo no estaba tan impresionado con la claridad del sabor.
