Chef Johns Dijon Mustard Recipes

DIJON MUSTARD SAUCE

Steps:

• Add the bacon (2 rashers - finely chopped) to the pan that you have just cooked your meat in, plus olive oil (up to 1 tbsp) if the pan is too dry. Fry bacon until lightly browned.
• Add fresh rosemary leaves (1 tbsp - very finely chopped) and crushed garlic (1 clove - cored and crushed) to the bacon in the pan, then continue to cook for 30 seconds.
• Add cream (300 ml ) and dijon mustard (1¼ tbsp) to the pan and stir to combine, scraping up any flavour spots from the bottom of the pan. Simmer on low heat for 5 -7 minutes or until sauce is thickened to your liking, remembering the sauce will thicken as it cools.
• Add salt and pepper to taste then serve.

CHEF JOHN'S DIJON MUSTARD

Steps:

• Combine white wine, water, vinegar, onion, and garlic in a saucepan; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, and simmer until flavors combine, about 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature and pour through a strainer into a large bowl; reserve liquid and discard onions and garlic.
• Stir mustard seeds, dry mustard, garlic powder, and salt into strained liquid; cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let sit at room temperature until mixture thickens, 24 to 48 hours.
• Puree mustard mixture to desired consistency using a stick blender. Transfer mustard mixture to a saucepan and add water as necessary to reach a smooth consistency. Bring mustard to a simmer, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring constantly, until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
• Pack mustard into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Refrigerate mustard until flavors blend, at least 1 week.
