Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the all-purpose flour to the melted butter and whisk constantly to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is slightly golden, ensuring it doesn't brown.
Slowly add the low sodium chicken broth to the roux, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Continue to cook and stir until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
Once the sauce has thickened, remove from heat and whisk in the Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar until fully incorporated.
Season the sauce with freshly ground black pepper and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Serve the Low Sodium Sauce Moutarde warm over your favorite dishes, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
