Mustard Cream Sauce

This elegant mustard cream sauce is a versatile addition to your culinary repertoire, offering a sophisticated balance of sharp Dijon and rich dairy. By reducing dry white wine with shallots, you create a deeply aromatic base that cuts through the thickness of the double cream. The addition of fresh dill and basil provides a bright, herbaceous finish that lifts the savoury notes of the mustard.

As a vegetarian-friendly condiment, this sauce is exceptionally adaptable. It works beautifully drizzled over roasted cauliflower steaks, tossed through fresh tagliatelle, or served alongside grilled salmon. Whether you are hosting a formal dinner or looking to elevate a simple midweek meal, this quick-to-prepare sauce adds a professional touch to your cooking with very little effort.
