Ah, “pop like popcorn” was maybe a bit misleading. I mainly meant that it jumped out of the pot violently. It didn’t turn inside-out like maize popcorn does.
So, the taste was essentially unaltered. The seed had burst open, though, so maybe that would help, if you wanted to make a sauce more spicy.
Did you know that when you fry mustard seeds, they pop like popcorn?
Well, I didn’t, so I hadn’t put a lid on.
I was still finding the little fuckers several months after the incident, in all kinds of corners of my kitchen.
Ok but how did the mustard seed popcorn taste?
