Mustard with parmesan and basil
 

What is not added to mustard – and dates with coriander, and tangerines with pistachios, and wild berries, and white wine … And the other day I found a novelty on the shelf – mustard with parmesan and basil. I really love both.

She opened the jar the same evening – the mustard with baked lamb went as if it were home. The next day I tried it with a beef steak – also good. Then I added the fragrant leftovers from the jar to the dressing for the vegetable salad. “!” – I was praised by my twelve-year-old son Lyovochka, a great gourmet, by the way. Indeed, both parmesan and basil, in combination with mustard, acquire a very unusual, but recognizable taste and aroma.

I wondered, what else can food lovers use exquisite mustard with? Last year, Sydney hosted a celebration to celebrate 30 years of presence in Australia. Guests were treated to dishes traditionally accompanied by mustard, such as smoked salmon, potato salad, baked veal and hot sausages.

But a truly grandiose impression was made by the dessert – chocolate cakes stuffed with mustard and honey. For the most daring chefs I don’t yet belong to, here’s a recipe for chocolate brownies from a Sydney party.

Next, you need to beat the egg whites, gradually adding sugar. Then carefully add the proteins to the chocolate mixture, trying to keep it as airy as possible.
