Aemono

Apple Pie, Patis, Pâté says: “There are two major categories in Japanese salads — sunomono (”vinegared things”) and aemono (”dressed things”). This crisp asparagus salad falls under aemono where a simple dressing of Japanese mustard, egg yolk, and soy sauce is applied sparingly, just enough to provide that distinctive mustard heat.”

Mustard makes me happy.
