It seems sale of mustard oil has been banned in the US because of high levels of erucic acid.

I cut the butter in 1/2 and used 2 tbsp of salt. Seems like it would be a good vehicle for any number of oils, sauces, etc.

The FDA has not banned mustard oil from India they just require a note saying for external use only. Yandilla Mustard Seed Oil - 500 ml from Amazon is made in Australia with a low level of erucic acid (canola oil from Canada is rapeseed oil with low erucic acid)
