== The Mustard "High" ==

The "'''mustard/capsaicin high'''" is a [[euphoric]] sensation caused by the consumption of large quantities of mustard/capsaicin from mustard/capsaicin-laden foods. It is theorised that the pain induced by capsaicin causes the human body to release [[endorphin]]s. Eventually, enough are released to create a sensation that is frequently compared to "[[runner's high]]".

Another point of view comes from some other few people with posibly weak blod-brain barrier caused by fungus+bacteria in longs periods of time or consumption of large quantities of capsaicin + lsd + snoring xtc in longs periods of time could burn/weak/make wider the blod brain barrier alowing those molecules to enter the brain more easy

some how those people become extreme sensitive to some legal molecules like aspirin, acetaminophen, capsaicin, curry, mustard or chlorihidrate of quinine, nesTea, chocolate theobramine and others, those hyper sensitive people/with weak blod-brain-barrier are getting an extreme HIGH with verry small doses <100mg of legal stuff, as high or more extreme High than most ilegal drugs, lasting 4 hours or more

The capsaicin high feels as powerfull as Lsd or crack cocaine, but feels too rigid = non flexible thoughs/emotions too hard over drive, i think becouse the capsaicin long tail, vs. aspirine high with no tail at all

The yellow mustard high feels way more pleasat, every visual pleasure it´s expanded and linked to sex with a warmth similar too xtc, but feels that comes from you/more you, does not shift/modify you like xtc, it feels part of you, the best High, beautiful high, but the falling down/coming down feels strange, like curry overdose

the chloridrate quinine in overdose fora sensitive person is "a mouth full of legal concentrated tonic water" paralizes the body, a normal person must drink 5 bottles to start feeling the body not working,
similar body paralisis like mixing n-acetilsisteine + taurine + cafeine,

but quinine in small/less concentrated dose a mouth full of green canada dry dose, makes the brain super emotinal, if you make something good or bad will feel like heaven or hell for hours, it does hyper amplifies your emotions acording to your actions and interactions with your enviroment/experiences verry similar to cocaine but not directly/only dopaine related emotions, does not feel Hooked like cocaine, and does not feel like the constant overdrive in another world/dimention like crack cocaine

The Aspirine high feels the next day like clouds, like soft transparent heaven, like being almost there, like you are tele-transported like star-trek to a transparent heaven where being alone or sick does not exists

Red wine makes a strange vibration, similar to xtc vibration

white wine makes a nice dopamine release, but thecomedown feels like the yellowmustardcome daown orcurry overdose,

the curry alone in high/over-dose also feels strange, you feel like had enter in a lonely dimention/world but feel warmth also, and does makes you dream strange thingsrelated to your past, and feel good + bad the next day like aspirine next day effect, but curyy its like it takes bad things from your past to punish you the next day, but things you had forgotten already long ago, strange, but i´ve read that curry molecule its good for colon stomach cancer

acetaminophen high amplifies the sound warmth emotion and makes it feel diferent but nice, but only sometimes,

n-acetilsisteine in sentitive people a dose of 50mg/100mg/250mg makes your body ready for war, like a war drive, similar to THC overdose photo negative world

30mn/60min adrenalin high + self-steem or confidence makes you feel like heaven on/off for a week

a short burst of adrenalin + beer makes the beer soo sweet and powerfull, but will give you some fake dejavus next day

But nothing beats the drive & sweetness of Real Instant L.O.V.E. + Sex

Mustard is used as a culinary term, referring to seeds or leaves of the mustard plant, or preparations made from them.


Prepared mustard

Small packets of ketchup and mustard.

Prepared mustard is a thick condiment, a yellow or yellow-brown paste with a sharp taste that is prepared from the ground mustard seeds, by mixing them with water, vinegar or other liquids, and adding ingredients such as flour. A strong mustard can cause the eyes to water, burn the palate and inflame the nasal passages. For this reason, mustard is an acquired taste.

The Romans most likely developed the prepared mustards we know today. They mixed unfermented grape juice, known as "must", with ground seeds (called sinapis) to form mustum ardens, or "burning must".

There are many varieties of mustard, which vary in strength and flavour. Places known for their mustard include Dijon (strong) and Meaux in France, Norwich and Tewkesbury in the United Kingdom. There are variations in the subsidiary spices and in the preparation of the mustard seeds. The husks may be ground with the seeds, or winnowed away after the initial crushing; "whole-grain mustard" retains some unground or partially ground mustard seeds. Bavarian "sweet mustard" contains very little acid, substituting copious amounts of sugar for preservation. Sometimes prepared mustard is simmered to moderate its bite, sometimes it is aged.


Colman's English Mustard jar

Dijon mustard is not covered by a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) or a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) under the auspices of the European Union; thus, while there exist major mustard plants in Dijon and suburbs, most Dijon mustard is manufactured outside of Dijon. Dijon mustard is simply a method of preparing ground mustard seeds, using brown mustard. Nor does "Dijon mustard" have an origin in medieval monasteries: in 1856, Jean Naigeon of Dijon substituted verjuice, the acidic "green" juice of not-quite-ripe grapes, for the older vinegar. Mustards are often prepared with some subsidiary spices like cloves, but in the past adulterants were so commonplace that in 1658 French law proscribed all mustard-making for sale except from certified makers.

Mustard is most often used as a condiment on meat, especially cold meats such as ham; the French like strong Dijon mustard with steak. It is also used as an ingredient in mayonnaise and vinaigrette, in marinades and barbecue sauce. Honey mustard is most often used as a topping for sandwiches and as a side for dipping french fries, onion rings, and other finger foods. It can also be used as a base for salad dressing when combined with vinegar and/or olive oil.

Mustard is a popular accompaniment to hot dogs, along with ketchup and relish. Lesser condiments include diced onions and banana peppers.

Popular brands of mustard are Plochman's (since 1852), French's (Robert Timothy French, 1880), and Gulden's (Charles Gulden, 1862) in the United States; Amora and Maille (since 1747) in France; and Colman's (Jeremiah Colman, 1804) in the U.K. In New Orleans Zatarain's manufactures Creole mustard.

Mustard was not popular in American cooking until mild "mustard sauce" using white (actually yellow) mustard seeds, with some additional turmeric for bright yellow coloring, was made commercially available. "Honey Dijon", which is made from the combination of Dijon mustard and honey, appeals in the U.S. to a national taste for sweetness in unexpected sources. In the U.S., very mild prepared mustard is often used as a condiment in combination with ketchup.

Mustard is generally sold in glass jars or plastic bottles. Any mustard which is stored for a long period of time is prone to separation, causing mustard water. Shaking a closed jar/bottle prior to opening is recommended.

The Mount Horeb Mustard Museum in Mt. Horeb, Wisconsin has the largest collection of prepared mustards in the world.

Mustard greens

Mustard greens (also known as green mustard cabbage), the leaves of the Indian mustard plant (Brassica juncea), are one of the greens considered to be an essential element in soul food. They are more pungent than the closely-related Brassica oleracea greens (kale, cabbage, collard greens, et cetera) and are very frequently mixed with these milder greens in a dish of "mixed greens", which can also often include wild greens such as dandelion. As with other greens in soul food cooking, they are generally flavored by being cooked for a long period with ham hocks or other smoked pork products. Mustard greens are also extremely high in Vitamin A and Vitamin K.

Chinese and Japanese cuisines make much more use of mustard greens. A large variety of B. juncea cultivars are grown and enjoyed, such as zha cai (tatsoi), mizuna, juk gai choy, and hseuh li hung (). Asian mustard greens are generally stir-fried or pickled. A South-East Asian dish called asam gai choy or kiam chai boey is often made with leftovers from a large meal. It involves stewing mustard greens with tamarind, dried chillies and leftover meat on the bone.
