One of my favorite tricks to jazz up any meal is whipping up homemade sauces. Just a dash can make a huge difference! From my tasty Horseradish Sauce for beef dishes, the creamy Cream Sauce for Salmon that’s always a big hit, to the classic Homemade Tartar Sauce perfect for fish – these sauces truly elevate the dishes they’re served with. Now, you may wonder, what’s so special about this sauce?

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

The Ingredients

Let’s talk about the ingredients:

Dijon Mustard: The base of our sauce. It’s smooth, slightly spicy, and full of flavor. If you can’t find Dijon, yellow or whole-grain mustard will work too. Honey: To balance out the tang of the mustard. If you prefer, maple syrup or agave nectar can also be used. Cider Vinegar and Lemon Juice: Adds a sharpness and depth of flavor. If you don’t have apple cider vinegar on hand, white wine vinegar will do the job. Extra-Virgin Olive Oil: It adds a rich, smooth texture to our sauce. If you want to experiment, avocado oil could work as well. Fresh Dill and Parsley: These herbs bring our sauce to life, adding a touch of freshness. If you don’t have fresh herbs, dried ones can be used, but remember to use them sparingly as they are more concentrated.

How To Make Dill Mustard Sauce

Recipe Tips

Quality Matters: Use the best ingredients you can find. Fresh herbs and a good quality mustard will make your sauce even better. Balance Your Flavors: Taste as you go and adjust your ingredients to get the flavor just right for you. Let It Rest: Giving your sauce some time to rest allows the flavors to meld together. So, make it a little ahead of time if you can.

Storing Tips

To store, transfer the sauce to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. It will keep well in the refrigerator for about a week. Remember to give it a good stir before using it if it’s been sitting for a while.
