## Italian-style dressing enhances the umami of root vegetables

"Italian Burdock Salad with Roasted Duck, Scented with Olive & Balsamic Vinegar"
Burdock root and lotus root, cut into large pieces and roasted, are mixed with a dressing scented with balsamic vinegar and olive. The earth-like flavor peculiar to burdock root goes well with the sour and deep flavor of Kenko Mayonnaise's "Olive & Balsamic Vinegar Dressing," creating a profound taste. The sweetness of dried figs adds an accent. This dish, with its moist and tender roasted duck and the enjoyable texture of chunky root vegetables, is also a perfect accompaniment to wine.
