Mustard sauce #recipe from Linda Wiken

From Linda:

When you hurt yourself on a mandolin, it's time to take a step back from the kitchen and make something really easy. Yes, I hurt my finger. Ouch.

So here's an easy recipe that you can do with one hand tied behind your back. Literally.

Mustard sauce. Just a few ingredients. Very tasty on fish, chicken, you name it.

One hand to whisk.

Nothing to chop. Okay, there's salad, but I used pre-torn lettuce!

I used frozen fish that I could snip open the packet with scissors, one-handed.

And that cute little item to the right of the fish? A parmesan crisp bought at the store, not homemade.

Enjoy.  I" promise to be more careful in the kitchen. I promise..."

Yes, this is my new mantra.

And,  here's my best kitchen tip yet -- always wear a special cut-resistant glove when using a mandolin. Leaving it in the drawer does not work!

A mandolin looks so innocent, doesn't it? Heh-heh.

Which kitchen item do you think could be deadly?

Mustard sauce

Serves 2

2 tablespoons white wine (or chicken broth)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon honey

1/4 teaspoon flour or cornstarch, to thicken (more if you like thicker sauce)

In a small saucepan, mix together all ingredients using a whisk. Heat, on medium low, for about 2 minutes. If it gets too thick, add a dash of water and stir.

Serve warm over grilled chicken, fish, or pork.
