Classic Honey Mustard Sauce
Origin of the recipe
Mustard and honey may seem like a strange combination, but it's actually quite harmonious. Mustard on its own has a strong, harsh flavor, which can overpower other ingredients. The sweetness of the honey softens the mustard's spiciness, making this sauce a perfect accompaniment to almost any meat or poultry dish.

Cooking tips
For preparation, it's easiest to use a tall, narrow container with an immersion blender, or simply a tall blender with a hinged lid. This will make it easier to add the oil in a thin stream.
If your sauce isn't thickening or isn't mixing well, try adding a little more egg yolk; it will help bind the butter with the rest of the ingredients.
If you want complete control over the spiciness and flavor of your sauce, you can make your own mustard. This allows you to choose how thick and punchy you want it to be.
