Dijon mustard

[a_chap]

Due to a series of particularly poor purchasing decisions we now have three jars of Dijon mustard

Consequently I'm looking for recipe suggestions that will help get rid of the damned stuff. Preferably something more inventive that "Salad dressing"...

My favourite use is in sandwiches. Just butter, good bread, and Dijon. I love it.

Chicken Alfredo!

Chicken and mushroom sauce? Welsh rarebit?

Pop a spot of whisky in the mix for a Scottish rarebit

I don't think my Scottish wife would let me do that.

I don't see having three jars of Dijon as poor purchasing tbh.

Make a marinade with it
Make some slaw with it
And of course salad dressings

blitz herbs into it, cover meat in it and bbq.

Thanks for the replies, people.

So far lots of them fall into the category of:

• use-instead-of-mayonnaise
• use instead of any damn ingredient the author could think of
• use it simply as an extra ingredient to make [foodstuff] "super interesting"...
• especially in marinades
• and, in Pickman's case, use as a salad dressing

Are there any this-can-only-be-made-with-Dijon-mustard recipes?

Lasts a year or so surely. I do like the leeks in mustard sauce recipe .

Although I am particularly partial to my Colman's English Mustard, there is nothing wrong with Dijon (I just like mustard, basically).

Goes really well with pork chops/loin steaks IMO - use in a glaze before grilling/barbecueing, or make a mustard sauce to go with. This use particularly is for Dijon, not as a substitute IMO.

It also works in cheese based sauces. Cheese sauce needs some mustard, depends what the cheese sauce is for but Dijon goes just fine IMO.

(And yeah, 3 jars of any mustard doesn't seem like a bad decision, it's not really like the stuff goes off quickly!)

You can make a lovely pastry with a bit of Dijon, and/or put it in a mushroom and ale pie.

I mix a bit in whenever I'm making mashed potatoes, also.

Dijonaise!

 

[High Voltage]

Three pots of Dijon mustard eh!

Find any recipe thread takes your fancy and simply put all of it in that one recipe thereby only ruining one meal rather than several by using up this muck

Then buy one pot of Colemans... Use sparingly

I prefer a mix of English & Wholegrain with my mash. Dijon is a bit crap to be honest & best for dressings or marinades.

Write a song about it. John Shuttleworth had a similar problem with margarine, which he blamed on the 2 for the price of 1 wheeze.

This is excellent, cooked it quite a few times.

I have a jar of Dijon which is almost entirely used solely to pimp up a cheese sauce.

 

[gentlegreen]

I love Grey Poupon, which you could almost eat out of the jar, but Aldi's is a decent substitute ...
I never understood what the hell Coleman's weird brown "french mustard" was all about ... and then English - best reserved for a footbath ....

A proper cheese sauce never needs to be "pimped up"

I never said anything about a proper cheese sauce

 

[Epona]

A proper cheese sauce should have mustard in it in the first fucking place (if you'll excuse my language)

Salad dressing with sherry vinegar. Game changer.
