Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Milk
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and let the eggs simmer for 10 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Once the butter is melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a smooth roux. Be careful not to let it brown.
Gradually add the milk and vegetable broth, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Keep the sauce warm on low heat.
Once the eggs are done, drain the hot water and run cold water over the eggs to cool them. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
To serve, place the egg halves on a plate and pour the warm mustard sauce over them. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve with boiled potatoes, crusty bread, or a side salad for a complete meal. Enjoy your Bavarian-style Eggs in Mustard Sauce!
