Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 tablespoons yellow mustard
- 1 1/2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
- sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Add the cream to a medium-sized saucepot and cook over medium-low heat while whisking constantly. Which takes about 8 to 10 minutes. It will become very thick. Think alfredo sauce.

Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make this recipe up to 3 days ahead of time. Keep cool until ready to use.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. This does not freeze well.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired amount of Dijon sauce to a small-size saucepot and heat over low heat until hot.
- If you are looking to use milk instead of cream, you will need to make a bechamel sauce and add in the different mustards once it is finished.
- I prefer to serve this sauce with my grilled spatchcock chicken.
- The combination of mustard makes for a very flavorful, aesthetically pleasing sauce.
