Does anyone here remember the olden days when you could get a “saucisse chaude” in a café that was prepped on a heated spike and doused with hot, hot mustard? On the edge of the plate, in your sandwiches, or hot, Amora products will season and enhance the flavours of your kitchen. The company was sold by a division of the French banking group Paribas SA, the Paribas Affaires Industrielles LBO Fund, and several other investors. In 2008, Amora Maille announced that it was closing three of its plants in Dijon, laying off more than half of their workers, and concentrating their operations in Chevigny.But the balance between refinement and fortitude abides, the flavor so rich, you’ll want to lick the knife. When arriving in Paris two years ago, I was overjoyed with the delicious mustard available everywhere. While Amora itself, formerly a small company, is now owned by Unilever, it still promises “authentic taste,” it’s still made in France, and it does not have sugar added. I “discovered” Amora when my husband and I went to France last year…we brought home several jars of Maille, though, having gone to the boutique in Dijon.
