**Pear Mustard Sauce**

**Ingredients:**
– 2 ripe pears, peeled and diced
– 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
– 1/4 cup honey

– 1/2 cup water
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger
– Salt and pepper to taste

**Instructions:**

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the diced pears, Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, water, and ground ginger. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Let the sauce cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pears are soft and the mixture has thickened slightly.

3. Using a potato masher or a fork, mash the cooked pears in the saucepan to break them down further and create a smoother consistency.

4. Continue to cook the sauce for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing it to thicken to your desired consistency. Remember that the sauce will continue to thicken slightly as it cools.

5. Season the Pear Mustard Sauce with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning levels to suit your preference. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to blend the mixture until it reaches your desired texture.

6. Once the sauce has reached the desired thickness and flavor, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before serving.
