ULRIKA'S Pear and Mustard Sauce

ULRIKA'S pear mustard sauce, a fruity and spicy speciality from Vorarlberg

ULRIKA'S pear mustard sauce combines 44 percent puréed pear with fine mustard heat into a fruity, spicy sauce from the workshop in Dornbirn. It is the classic companion for a cheese board and a cold platter and brings fruity depth to game, poultry and hearty sauces.

Taste and aroma

Sweet, full-bodied pear meets the clear heat of mustard. The fruit takes the edge off the mustard sauce and makes it round and elegant – fruity on the attack, spicy in the finish.

How to use

Serve the pear mustard sauce classically with a cheese board, with mountain cheese, camembert and blue cheese. It goes with ham, pâtés, game and poultry and refines salad dressings and gravies. Just a spoonful lifts a simple cold platter to a festive level.

Important: store cool and dry, keep refrigerated after opening and use within a few weeks. Stir briefly before use.

Tip from the Gewürzamt

A dollop with matured mountain cheese, walnuts and pear slices makes a quick, elegant starter. It is also a fine contrast to a strong roast poultry.
