How to use "Mustard family" in context?
While mustard is a familiar condiment and ingredient in many cuisines, there is a surprising richness to the mustard family as a whole. The members of this family come from Eurasia and are distantly related to cabbage, broccoli, kale, and cauliflower. The plants producing mustard have a long and complicated ancestry that includes cabbage, rapeseed (which is used to create canola oil), and mustard itself. Mustard's pungent flavor comes from the plant's chemical compound, allyl isothiocyanate (AITC), which gets concentrated as the plant ages.
