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?

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.
