 Is mustard the "Jewish Condiment?" Barry Levenson, founder and Curator of the National Mustard Museum (and a nice Jewish boy who almost became a rabbi), will present a delightful program on mustard and its relation to Jewish culture and cuisine.

Tradition tells us that when Abraham greeted strangers with food, he served mustard with tongue. Does "Jewish mustard" have to be kosher?  Are there some typically Jewish foods that must be served with mustard? Is mustard ok for Passover? (It depends.) The National Mustard Museum holds the world's largest collection of mustards and mustard memorabilia and Barry Levenson is the world's foremost authority on the golden condiment.
