I hadn’t, but when I found out such a role existed, I was seriously intrigued. I love slathering some deliciously tangy mustard on salmon before roasting or using it as a dip for pigs in a blanket, but I wondered if there was more I could be doing with the beloved condiment. So I sat down with Brandon Collins, corporate executive chef at Unilever and Maille’s mustard sommelier,…
