CHEF JOHN'S DIJON MUSTARD

As with all condiments, you can and should adjust this to your taste. This style of Dijon doesn't contain any sweetener, but a little sugar or honey are common additions these days. You can also adjust the acidity, and I did add a little more than called for, since I tend to like things on the sharper side.

Time P8DT40m

Yield 64

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups white wine
1 cup water, or more as needed
⅔ cup white wine vinegar
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup whole yellow mustard seeds
¼ cup dry mustard
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 1-pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Combine white wine, water, vinegar, onion, and garlic in a saucepan; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, and simmer until flavors combine, about 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature and pour through a strainer into a large bowl; reserve liquid and discard onions and garlic.
  • Stir mustard seeds, dry mustard, garlic powder, and salt into strained liquid; cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let sit at room temperature until mixture thickens, 24 to 48 hours.
  • Puree mustard mixture to desired consistency using a stick blender. Transfer mustard mixture to a saucepan and add water as necessary to reach a smooth consistency. Bring mustard to a simmer, reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring constantly, until flavors combine, about 10 minutes.
  • Pack mustard into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Refrigerate mustard until flavors blend, at least 1 week.

PORK MEDALLIONS DIJON



Pork Medallions Dijon image

This recipe is quick enough to make on a weeknight, and yummy enough for company! The crushed black peppercorns are key....do not grind them into a fine mix. Take the peppercorns and put them into a non-breakable flat pan (like a metal pie pan), cover with a dish cloth or napkin, and pound them with a wooden or rubber mallet so that they are crushed or cracked, not ground. Yummy, yummy!

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb pork tenderloin
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/3 cup white vinegar or 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
8 black peppercorns, crushed
2 cups whipping cream
1/3 cup Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Cut the pork tenderloin into 1/2 inch thick slices. Dredge the tenderloin slices in flour.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet, and brown the tenderloin slices in the melted butter over medium-high heat 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove tenderloin slices to a serving platter, reserving the drippings in the skillet. Keep the tenderloin slices warm. (I like to put them on top of a heating pad, covered with foil).
  • Add the vinegar and crushed peppercorns to the drippings. Cook over medium-high heat until the liquid is reduced to 2 tablespoons. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the whipping cream; cook for 15 minutes or until the mixture is reduced to 1 1/2 cups, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard.
  • Serve the tenderloin slices with the warm sauce.
