Pommery® Moutarde de Meaux® opening technique
To open the Pommery® Moutarde de Meaux® wax jar, simply break the wax all around with the back of a knife, then lightly insert the tip between the cork and the stoneware and work your way around. Then, using a small stiff-bristled brush, remove any small wax particles still attached to the pot.
