Grainy mustard is aka: coarse... Grey Poupon and Maille are two well
known brands that sell it.

There are lots of mustard types to choose from if "grainy" was the
only indication the recipe gave. Sounds like the writer was more
interested in texture than flavor, so use your smooth Grey Poupon and
it will be fine.
