The mustard sauce with the addition of Valdelsa onion tears is an excellent accompaniment for legume meatballs but is also a delightful dressing for salads and steamed vegetables. Its rich and slightly tangy taste pairs perfectly with pork as well, making it ideal for roast dishes. It enhances the flavor of grilled chicken breast. Therefore, the mustard sauce is truly versatile: a simple and quick recipe that will come in very handy!

I use Valdelsa onion tears, an excellent product I can no longer do without. It has a unique and special taste that enhances any dish. You can substitute it with good balsamic vinegar or soy sauce, but the flavor will be different.
