Chef Tips

It’s important to use Dijon or Dijon-style mustard for the vinaigrette dressing. Regular yellow mustard just doesn’t have enough bite to it. Dijon mustard has spices and is quite tart and dry tasting. It’s totally versatile and tastes good with everything, including hot dogs. Give it a try.
