Reine de Dijon Moutarde de Dijon in a bright yellow 5 kg handled bucket, made in France, for dressings, sauces and sandwiches.
Reine de Dijon's catering size comes in a sunny yellow bucket with a white snap lid and a carry handle, and a long white label: the navy Reine de Dijon wordmark with its fleur-de-lis and 1840, Moutarde in capitals, De Dijon on a yellow band, a pale drawing of a mustard plant, a small French flag stripe, and Produit en France. Arabic text, a nutrition panel and storage advice run along each side, with 5 kg on the left. The brand logo is a blue and gold shield reading Moutarde depuis 1840. The gallery shows the bucket in a professional kitchen beside a big plate of green salad with shaved cheese and tomatoes and a bowl of creamy mustard dressing, and beside a steel bowl with a whisk, garlic and a cruet of oil. As general background, Dijon was granted exclusive rights to mustard making in France in the 17th century. A smooth Dijon typically emulsifies well, which keeps dressings from splitting. Commonly, chefs whisk it into house vinaigrettes and mayonnaise, add it to cheese sauces and gratins, and rub it over chicken and beef before roasting. Keep the lid on, store the bucket in the fridge after opening, and use within the date shown.
