Rai Medium
Whole Mustard Seeds (Rai Medium) – Buy Online at Best Price
The small, round mustard seeds that pop in hot oil at the start of an Indian dal or curry are almost always the brown or black variety — sharper and more pungent than the paler yellow mustard used for pastes and sauces in Western cooking. Spyran Rai Medium is that classic tempering-grade whole mustard seed: hand-cleaned, naturally processed, and sized for the sharp crackle and nutty aroma that defines authentic tadka.
Available in 100g, 250g & 500g packs with delivery across India.
Why Rai (Mustard Seeds) Pops in Hot Oil
- The brown and black varieties used for Indian rai are more pungent than yellow mustard
- Frying releases the seeds’ essential oils, giving a nutty, slightly sharp fragrance
- This crackle-and-release step is the base of countless dals, curries, and vegetable dishes
- A milder relative of the same seed also gets ground into mustard paste and sauces elsewhere in the world

Rai Medium Usage

Rai Medium vs Rai Small Red: Which One to Pick
Rai Medium is Spyran\'s standard tempering-grade mustard seed — a reliable, everyday size for tadka in dal, sabzi, and curries. Rai Small Red is a smaller, more reddish-brown seed, favoured for a sharper pop and a more concentrated pungency in achaar and certain South Indian preparations. Either works for basic tempering; Rai Small Red is the one to reach for when a recipe specifically calls for that bolder finish.
How to Store Rai Medium
Keep in an airtight container away from direct sunlight and moisture. Whole mustard seeds hold their pungency for a long time when stored dry, so a full 500g pack is a practical buy for regular cooks searching rai online for their monthly kitchen restock.
