I just got off the phone with a supplier sales person. Wrapping up the phone call, I ask his name again, because I missed it when he picked up the call.

"Dijon, sir"
What? Like the mustard?
Yup, like the mustard.
I chuckle and he says "You won't believe me, but my surname is Mostert."
I almost fall off my chair.

'Mostert' is the Afrikaans for mustard...

That's a cool name indeed. I knew a family were everyone was named for spices: Basil, Rosemary, Pepper, and their last name was McCormick!

I don't get it. McCormick is a spice company?

Indeed! Biggest in the USA. I forgot it may not be so called abroad. Don't tell me Dijon Mostert is a supplier of condiments!

I know a Scottish person called Dougall.
Unfortunately for him, his second name is MacDougall.

I mix yellow mustard, BBQ sauce and a generous helping of Frank's Red Hot. It was very well received at my RHP BBQ.

Dijon, not so sure unless I'm mixing it with the other stuff.

The idea came from this product:

My sister-in-law brought some up from South Carolina, good stuff!

I make my own version now, my understanding is the owner has some pretty racist views... that's what I heard anyway. I also thought they went out of business so not sure how true what I heard is.

Three table spoons of Dijon mustard is a must in a good beef casserole.

Recipe available at all good mikelom book shops.
