Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the flour and mustard (if using).
- Stir thoroughly to form a thick paste.
- Cook gently for 2 to 3 minutes more, watching the heat to ensure the paste does not burn. This will cook off the taste of raw flour in the finished sauce.
- Gradually whisk in the milk.
- Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, frequently whisking to make sure there are no lumps. The sauce should be quite thick but still pouring consistency. If too thick, add a little more milk.
- Add the fresh parsley and stir well.
- Season with a good pinch of sea salt and a few black pepper grinds. Taste and add more as needed.
- Keep the sauce warm, on low heat, until needed. If keeping sauce warm for more than 15 minutes, laying a piece of buttered parchment paper on the surface will prevent a skin from forming. If a slight skin does form, whisk thoroughly over heat, and it should disappear.
- Serve and enjoy.

Steps:
- Remove most of the stalks, and then finely chop your parsley.
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a mid to low heat. Once the butter is melted add the flour.
- Stir the flour in, until you have a thick paste or roux. Then cook for a few minutes stirring all the time. Cook the roux thoroughly. Otherwise, the sauce may taste of flour.
- Gradually start to add the milk, a little at a time, stirring it in well to make a smooth paste after each addition. As the paste turns to a sauce, you can add more milk each time.
- Bring to a simmer for a few minutes so the sauce thickens. Keep stirring all the time. Make sure you scrape the sides and bottom of the pan where the sauce will thicken faster, to ensure an even consistency and avoid burning.
- Stir in the freshly chopped parsley and season with pepper and salt to taste. If you are using mustard, lemon or cream, add these at this stage.
- The sauce will keep warm in the pan for 15-20 minutes. If you need to leave it for longer, place a circle of buttered parchment or greaseproof paper on the top, to stop a skin forming.

Steps:
- Place the parsley in a food processor, along with the oil, garlic, a healthy pinch of salt and about 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. With the machine on, drizzle the vinegar through the feed tube until the parsley is pureed.
- Add a tablespoon of water and pulse the machine on and off a couple of times; taste. The mixture should taste sharp, but not overpoweringly so. If it seems too sharp, add a little more water; the texture will be quite loose, something like thick orange juice. Taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Pass the sauce at the table. Spoon it over grilled, broiled or roasted steaks, pork or chicken.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, vibrant parsley: The quality of your parsley will greatly impact the flavor of the sauce, so make sure to use the freshest, most vibrant parsley you can find.
- Chop the parsley finely: Finely chopping the parsley will help it distribute evenly throughout the sauce and release its flavor more easily.
- Use a variety of herbs: If you want to add more complexity to your sauce, try adding other herbs, such as chives, tarragon, or thyme.
- Don't overcook the sauce: Parsley sauce is best when it is fresh and bright, so avoid overcooking it. Simply heat it until it is warmed through.
- Serve immediately: Parsley sauce is best served immediately after it is made. It can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days, but it will lose some of its flavor over time.
Conclusion:
Parsley sauce is an incredibly versatile sauce that is packed with flavor. It can be used to enhance a variety of dishes, from simple grilled fish to hearty pasta dishes. With its vibrant green color and fresh, herbaceous flavor, parsley sauce is a great way to add a touch of elegance to any meal. Whether you are looking for a light and refreshing sauce for your next salad or a flavorful accompaniment to your favorite protein, parsley sauce is sure to impress.
