Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Chicken or vegetable stock
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon White wine vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Once the butter has melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, to make a roux. The mixture should be smooth and lightly golden.
Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable stock, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer and thicken, about 2–3 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, honey, and white wine vinegar. Mix well until smooth and combined.
Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
Continue cooking for another 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
Remove from heat and serve warm over roasted meats, steamed vegetables, or as a dipping sauce.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving.
