JAPANESE 'LEEKS' WITH MISO-MUSTARD
Here is a recipe David Tanis built out of one he got from the cookbook author Nancy Singleton Hachisu for negi, the long Japanese onion that looks like a leek. You could try it with actual leeks, or with spring onions or even scallions in a pinch. It's a bit of a riff on the classic French leeks vinaigrette, but the taste is purely Japanese.

Steps:
- Wash and trim negi. Cut them to divide the white bottoms from the more tender green tops.
- In a covered bamboo steamer set over rapidly boiling water, steam white bottoms for about 4 minutes. Add green tops and continue steaming for another 4 minutes, until negi are tender. Set aside uncovered to cool.
- Stir together mustard, miso and vinegar. Transfer negi to a serving bowl and gently fold in dressing.

[email protected]I found that this dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less miso paste in the sauce.
