Hi I start mine as for a roux, melt 1 tblsp of butter, add 1 tbslp of flour and stir until smooth, slowly add liquid. And stir constantly to avoid lumps, I use wholegrain mustard, and would add about a tablespoon, but keep tasting it as more may be needed, season with salt and pepper, and I always put a little sugar in there, again do that to your taste. Bring to the boil cook for a few minutes to cook the flour. Now if I was making this for corned beef I would use some of the cooking liquor for the liquid, if not use a good stock or warmed milk.

Can add a little malt vinegar if you like a tang

I always make the one in the Edmonds cook book and it is lovely.

Always use the Edmonds one but "mjwright's" one reminded me of my nursing days as thats the way the cooks made it way back then. (and I love it either way).

Used the Edmonds mustard sauce recipe last night with our corned beef- it was very good!

I used to make it out of the juice the corned beef was cooked in, but the past few times, the water is yukky.(mustbe from the beef).
saw a packet one by the meat section.global or mccormicks.
wouldnt go past them now. so easy and so tasty.

I use the Edmonds recipe,however, I dont use water, I use the liquor that the meat is cooked in. When cooking the meat, I do it in the crockpot and add malt vinegar, brown sugar, whole cloves and 2-3 bay leaves.

I do the same cookessentials and it gives the sauce a great flavour!
