Notes

1. Sun Dried Tomatoes - I use the sun dried tomatoes that are marinated in olive oil, rather than the dried ones without oil. It comes in a jar and you can get it over the counter at delis too. I like using the oil to cook with for extra sun dried tomato flavour!

2. Parmesan - must use either parmesan that's finely grated yourself (pack the cup to measure) OR store bought finely shredded that looks like thin batons. Do NOT use sand-like store bought parmesan, it doesn't melt.

3. Mustard - The mustard is optional. I add it because it thickens the sauce slightly and also adds a touch of acidity to cut through the creaminess.
