Mustard is a weed of the fields and can be found almost everywhere. It has vibrant yellow flowers that form clusters, and the leaves are of medium size and alternate.

The young leaves are used as a seasoning in salads, while the larger leaves are used as a vegetable. The seeds are ground, and the powder is used as a seasoning for white mustard.

For therapeutic purposes, the seeds are primarily used, which are collected at the end of the summer.
