The CC has trouble imagining Bengali food minus mustard and mustard oil but who knew that panch phoran (mixture of mustard seeds, nigella, fenugreek, fennel and cumin) didn't originally use mustard?
It used radhuni (wild celery) instead of mustard.

Indians eat celery???
They don't.
And I suppose it might have been better to call radhuni as a seed from a plant related to celery.
They do grow a lot of celery in India though (mostly for exports.)
