Zatarain’s Creole mustard should be used if it is available, but Grey Poupon Country Dijon is a suitable substitute.
Combine the mustard, vinegar, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Using a blender or food processor add the oil in small portions blending thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the remaining ingredients and chill for at least one hour. Use this as a sauce for shrimp, oysters or other seafood.
