Taco Seasoning + Mustard smells like pickles

Taco Seasoning + Mustard smells like pickles - Woman in Teal Tank Top Holding Burger

I made chicken burgers seasoned with taco seasoning mix, black pepper, and mustard. After letting it marinate on the meat for a while there was a strong sent of pickles. What might be causing it to smell of pickles?



Best Answer

It is possible that what you actually smell is the mustard seed, but because mustard seed is such a common ingredient in pickles, you've associated the smell as being the smell of pickles.
