Elevate any fish dish with this silky Dill Sauce featuring fresh or dried dill, Dijon mustard, and a classic roux base. The sauce combines the bright flavors of dill with the subtle tang of mustard in a creamy milk-based sauce that complements everything from salmon to cod. Make extra roux to keep in the refrigerator for quick sauce preparation anytime.
Ingredients
2 cups milk
2 TBSP fresh or 1 tsp dry dill
1 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
