When Irish Mouths Are Eating

Green outfits? Check.
Irish Soda Bread? Check.
New England Boiled Dinner? Check.
Gramma's Mustard Sauce? Now where is that recipe....

Mustard Sauce, adapted from The Fannie Farmer Cookbook (an earlier edition than mine)

Mix together:
2 T. dry mustard
1 t. flour
1/4 t. salt
1/4 cup soymilk mixed from soymilk powder to the consistency of evaporated milk

Put the following in a heavy pan or a double boiler top:
3/4 cup soymilk mixed from soymilk powder to the consistency of evaporated milk
1/4 cup sugar
Heat. Stir in the mustard mixture. Add 1 egg yolk beaten until thick. Cook and stir until thick. Stir in 1/2 cup heated vinegar. Makes 1 1/2 to 2 cups.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

  3. I'm scared of mustard. What should I call that, dijonaphobia?
