I like how you said that as long as you measure everything out right this will be the easiest mustard sauce you’ve ever made. My wife is the queen of measuring stuff with laser precision. She also cooks a lot, so anything that is easy to make is for sure on her good side. We might need to try this homemade mustard sauce.
