Whisky And Mustard Sauce Recipes

PORK CHOPS WITH MUSTARD BOURBON SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat, for about 1 minute or until the surface of the pan is uniformly hot. Pat the chops dry, and season the chops on one side with salt and pepper. Add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the chops seasoned side down and cook until the chops are brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the butter and cook for 1 minute more. Season the top side of the chops, and turn the chops over. Continue cooking until firm and an instant-read thermometer registers 140 degrees F, about 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer the chops to a plate, tent with foil and set aside to rest.
• Pour off any fat remaining in the skillet. Pull the pan from the heat and carefully add the bourbon. Return the pan to the heat and tip the pan slightly to ignite the alcohol. Cook until reduced by half then add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 3 minutes, then whisk in the mustard and the cream. Simmer the sauce until it coats the back of a spoon, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper and serve with the pork chops.

WHISKY CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a small pan over a medium heat until the butter starts to foam. Fry the shallot until soft but not golden, about 8 mins.
• Add the bay leaf and garlic, then cook for 1 min more. Add 100ml whisky and simmer until absorbed by the shallots, and almost evaporated.
• Pour in the stock and simmer for 5-10 mins until reduced by half. Stir in the cream and simmer for another 5 mins until thickened slightly. Season with salt and taste the sauce. Stir in the remaining whisky for a stronger flavour. Serve with haggis, steak or mashed potatoes.

WHISKEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place cream in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Whisk together cornstarch and water; add to cream while whisking. Bring to a boil. Whisk; let simmer for a few seconds, taking care not to burn mixture on bottom. Remove from heat; stir in the sugar and bourbon. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Let cool to room temperature.

WHISKEY MUSTARD

Steps:

• Grind the mustard seeds to a powder, I use a coffee grinder.
• In a ceramic or glass bowl mix the mustard powder with the water and leave for half an hour.
• Then add the flour with the cayenne (if using) mix well.
• Add vinegar, whisky, honey, nutmeg, salt and mix until well blended.
• Cover and leave overnight.
• Next day: if it looks too dry add more honey, so far the times I made it it never looked too dry but sometimes too thin and I add another spoon of flour, the mustard will thicken a bit more the next weeks so keep that in mind.
• Pour into sterilized jars and seal, allow to mature/mellow for 2 to 3 weeks in a cool dark place.
• After opening keep in the fridge.
