where dijon mustard was created
Dijon mustard is a refined version of that first condiment and has its origins, obviously enough, in Dijon, France. A man named Jean Naigeon created his version of mustard in Dijon in 1856. Throughout the ages, most people made mustard from mustard seeds and vinegar. Naigeon used âverjuiceâ instead of vinegar. Verjuice is a sour liquid made from unripe grapes.
