Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until fully melted and bubbling.
Add the all-purpose flour to the melted butter and whisk continuously to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste, but avoid browning.
Gradually pour in the chicken or vegetable stock, whisking constantly to ensure a smooth consistency. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer and thicken, about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for another 2 minutes until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
Add the Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and honey to the saucepan. Stir well to combine.
Season the sauce with salt and ground black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Continue to cook the sauce over low heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until warmed through and well-integrated.
Serve the sauce warm over your chosen dish, such as roasted vegetables, grilled meat, or seafood.
