Mustard & Dill Sauce

I haven't written for a while, but perhaps that's okay, because the one person who I know for sure reads my blog seems to have dropped off the face of the planet. But just in case he comes back, here's a pretty tasty sauce.

Mustard & Dill Sauce

2 T. butter (2 msk smör)
2 T. flour (2 msk vetemjöl)
3/4 cup water (2 dl vatten)
2 fish bullion cubes (1 fiskbuljongtärning)
3/4 cup milk (2 dl mellanmjölk)
1 T. dijon mustard (1 msk fransk senap)
4 T. lemon juice (4 msk färskpressad citron)
1 T. fresh dill (1 msk färsk dill)

Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour until thoroughly mixed. Add water and bullion and bring to a boil. Simmer for a few minutes. Mix in milk, mustard, lemon juice and dill, heat until warm.

Comments: The reason I've written 1 bullion cube in English and 2 bullion cubes in Swedish is that the typical bullion cube here is for a half a liter of water, whereas the bullion cubes we always had at home in the states were only for one cup.

We ate this with salmon, fresh pasta and green peas. It turned out to be, ahem, 745 Calories per portion -- fresh pasta apparently has quite a bit more calories per "serving" than your traditional boring dry pasta. But still, it's a tasty sauce for fish and pasta!
