My name is Gareth Mark, and I live in Portland, Oregon. I've been a line cook a few times and worked several years as a pastry chef.




I have been attending your most recent cooking classes and have enjoyed them. Last week you did a sauteed chicken and made a mustard sauce w/vermouth. I thought you said the recipe was on your website; however, I have not been able to find it. Can you tell me where to go or email it to me. It was delicious and so simple. I have saved the garlic recipe and green beans from that session. All sessions have been most informative. I’ll see you at the upcoming classes.
Thanks! The sauce is the Whole Grain Mustard Sauce.
I have made this mustard sauce many times, always good. I started using sour cream in place of real cream. Try it, you will like it.
Crème fraîche works quite well too.
