Cheesy Mustard Recipes

CHEESY MUSTARD MASH

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes in salted water for 20 mins or until tender, then drain.
• Heat the grill to high. Mash the potatoes until smooth, then beat in the crème fraîche and half the cheese. Season to taste, then spoon the hot mash into a medium baking dish and smooth the top.
• Mix together the rest of the cheese, the mustard and thyme leaves. Spread over the mash with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Grill until the cheese is melting and golden, then serve with the beef.

CHEESY BAKED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Steam whole head of cauliflower for 30 minutes. Drain and place on a pie plate.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise and mustard; spread the mixture over cauliflower and dot with pats of butter. Sprinkle generously with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) uncovered, for about 30 minutes, or until the cheese is brown.

CHEESY MUSTARD BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare a baking dish with cooking spray and place chicken in the dish. Spread 1 tablespoon of the butter onto the chicken breasts and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Bake the chicken breasts for about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature is about 155 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a small saucepan and add the shallots and garlic clove and cook for 2 minutes, stirring until the garlic is fragrant and the shallots begin to soften. Add the flour and cook for another 2 minutes so the flour smells lightly nutty. Whisk the milk into the flour mixture and raise the heat to medium high. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens and slightly bubbles. Stir in the mustard and white cheddar cheese and 1/4 of the Parmesan cheese, whisking until the cheese is smooth. Season with a pinch of cayenne pepper and kosher salt to taste.
• Remove the chicken breasts from the oven and raise the oven temperature to 475 degrees F. Pour the sauce over the chicken breasts and sprinkle each of them with the panko bread crumbs and remaining parmesan cheese. Bake for 5-10 more minutes or until chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees and the tops of the chicken and sauce is golden brown. Garnish with parsley.

CHEESY LEEK AND MUSTARD SOUP

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium heat, saute the leeks, onion, potato and carrot in the butter or margarine and the olive oil for 10 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
• Mix the mustard powder and cornstarch with the 1/2 cup water to make a thin paste. Set aside.
• Season the vegetable mixture with salt and pepper and sugar. Stir in the mustard-water mixture and the 5 cups water. Bring mixture to a boil. Stir in the bouillon cube, reduce heat and simmer for about one hour, until reduced by half.
• Using a hand blender or upright blender, puree mixture until frothy but not completely smooth.
• Return this to the pot and bring to a boil. Stir in the heavy cream, Gruyere and Cheddar cheeses. Heat until cheeses melt, do not boil. Serve hot.

CHEESY CAYENNE SAVOURY BISCUITS

Steps:

• Mix the flour, mustard powder, cayenne pepper, rosemary and a generous grind of black pepper together until well-combined. Beat in the butter with a wooden spoon until the mixture resembles a smooth paste, then stir in the cheeses and egg yolk until evenly combined.
• Shape the dough into a 30cm log, rolling it back and forth on a clean work surface using the palms of your hands until it is an even thickness. Sprinkle the poppy seeds over a large sheet of baking parchment, put the log on top and roll back and forth until evenly coated. Wrap the log in the parchment, twist the ends and chill in the freezer for 35 mins until firm but not frozen.
• Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5 and line two large baking trays with baking parchment. Unwrap the log, trim the ends and slice it into 1cm rounds. To get ahead, freeze the slices on lined baking trays, then tip into a freezerproof bag and freeze for three months (see tip, below). Place the rounds 3cm apart on the trays and bake for 12-15 mins until golden and slightly mottled on top. Leave to cool completely on the trays. Will keep in an airtight container for up to two weeks. Crisp in a hot oven if needed.

MUSTARD-PARMESAN WHOLE ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the bottom of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Remove the leaves from the cauliflower, then trim the stem flush with the bottom of the head so the cauliflower sits flat on the prepared baking sheet. Rub the outside of each head with the cut garlic.
• Whisk together the oil, 3 tablespoons mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a small bowl.
• Put the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and brush the entire outside and inside with the mustard-oil mixture. Roast the cauliflower until nicely charred and tender (a long skewer inserted in the center of the cauliflower should pass through easily), 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let rest for a few minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the parsley and Parmesan in a small bowl. Brush the outside of the roasted cauliflower heads all over with the remaining 1 tablespoon mustard and generously sprinkle with the Parmesan mixture.
• Cut the cauliflower into thick wedges and serve on plates with a sprinkle of salt, lemon wedges and any extra Parmesan mixture.

CHEESY MUSTARD

Steps:

• Combine the mustard, cheese spread and Worcestershire in a saucepot. Heat, whisking, until evenly combined. Serve warm, with pretzels.

CHEESY MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium-size saucepot. Add flour, cook 1-2 minutes over moderate heat, then whisk in the chicken stock and mustard.
• When the stock comes to a bubble and starts to thicken, stir in the cheese with a wooden spoon.
• Remove from the heat and serve.
