One used a wide variety, but the other used nothing but mustard. He was so parochial and unadventurous he even considered pepper to be foreign and not to his taste. It made me realise that mustard is indeed the native hot spice in Europe, which hadn't really occurred to me before.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053563546908229556.post-41045066597699900202013-09-05T07:48:00.663+02:002013-09-05T07:48:00.663+02:00Thanks for adding the explanation about Aligoté wi...Thanks for adding the explanation about Aligoté wine!

It resulted in some interesting interactions with locals in Dijon. I really hope that I can go to the Fallot factory in Beune. Mustard is near and dear to my heart. I seem to buy jars wherever we go - Belgium, Germany, etc. because they have such different flavors.Mary Kay Bossharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790841060667671034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053563546908229556.post-36710250634000609642013-09-05T07:23:16.103+02:002013-09-05T07:23:16.103+02:00Mmm, enhancing mustard with mustard powder sounds ...Mmm, enhancing mustard with mustard powder sounds delicious! A Japanese friend told me that she always combines wasabi powder with water to make "fresh" wasabi at home because it's more powerful. It must be true for mustard, too. Thanks for the tip!<br /><br />I didn't find Dijon Disney-esque, although I can see how you could get that idea from the photos I posted. It's a very "real" small city.<br /><br />Sorry that the Aligote sentence was confusing. My brain is still on vacation!

Very interesting and too bad that they didn't get an AOC designation before the world figured out that there was money to be made on Dijon mustard.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601542052605334407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1053563546908229556.post-62963915955446823452013-09-02T19:47:44.877+02:002013-09-02T19:47:44.877+02:00This all looks a little Disney-esque, or maybe it&...This all looks a little Disney-esque, or maybe it's just my attitude today.<br /><br />I used to doctor the mustard we used in Montauk on steak and other red meats--I'd add Colman's mustard powder to mustard to make it even more intense.
