Techniques
- Dijon mustard
- Saikyo miso
- olive oil
Whisk white miso, Dijon mustard and olive oil together.
- soy sauce
- sugar
- honey
Add a splash of soy sauce and sweeten with sugar and/or honey; taste for a sweet, savory, mustardy balance.
Balancing the dressing
Slice the cucumbers holding the knife at a slight angle, about 10 degrees, so the slices fall away to the side instead of riding up the blade and getting cut again.
- togarashi
Sprinkle with a little shichimi togarashi.
