Notes
- Adjust to Taste: Don't hesitate to tweak the honey or mustard amounts to get the perfect balance for your palate.
- Alternative Sweeteners: You can use maple syrup or agave nectar in place of honey if preferred.
- Spice It Up: For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few drops of hot sauce.
- Storage Tips: Keep the sauce refrigerated in an airtight container; it usually stays fresh for up to a week.
- Consistency Check: If the sauce is too thick for your liking, thin it with a bit of water or extra lemon juice.
