Many of our customers are partial to Martin-Pouret Orléans vinegars, for good reason.The venerable Maison Martin-Pouret has made outstanding artisan vinegar in Orléans since the end of the 18th century, so you can be pretty sure they know what they're doing. :)
This week we are thrilled to introduce five gourmet condiments to complement our Martin-Pouret selection. Enter three smooth mustards made with mustard seeds from the Loire Valley and Orléans vinegar and two distinctly French tangy ketchups made with 100% French tomatoes and white wine vinegar aged in oak barrels. Get ready to delight the foodies!
Enjoy the flavors. Take good care of yourself.

Try out Martin-Pouret's recipe for mustard chicken
Let the rich flavors win over your taste buds!
Ingredients (serves 4)
4 chicken fillets
10 large mushrooms
3 Tbsp whole grain mustard
1 shallot
1 clove garlic
15g butter
30cl dry white wine
1 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp of crème fraîche
a few leaves thyme
a few leaves parsley
salt and pepper
Directions
Put the chicken escalopes in a salad bowl with the Martin-Pouret original mustard and mix so that they are well coated.
Peel and chop the shallot and garlic.
Heat the butter and olive oil in a pan. When the mixture starts to crackle, brown the chopped shallot for 3 to 4 minutes, then remove and put to one side.
Brown the chicken pieces over a fairly high heat for 5 minutes. Make sure every side is coloured.
Return the shallots to the pan, add the white wine, chopped garlic, thyme and a little salt.
Cook with the lid on for 30 minutes (the steam must be able to escape a little).
Then add the chopped mushrooms. Leave to cook without the lid on for 10 minutes.
Add the crème fraîche and a dash of wasabi (optional) and leave to cook for 3 to 4 minutes on low heat.
Decorate with the parsley just before serving.
