Prepared mustard???

[Cory]

What is "prepared mustard"? I've seen this in a few recipes, but I have no idea what it is!

I thought it was just regular old yellow mustard. i've always used it in recipes calling for prepared mustard with success.

It is just the kind of mustard that you get in a jar, as opposed to powdered mustard that you get in the spice section of the grocery store. You can use any of the kinds of mustard that you find in a jar depending on your tastes and depending on the recipe.
