Tony - When a recipe calls for "prepared mustard" it means the mildish yellow mustard you spoon from a jar. Just get whatever generic or store brand mustard you have available, because you hit it right on the head the first time when you asked "the kind you put on a hot dog?" I see Signe's point, too, but that wasn't what you were asking. :-) === Dave Sacerdote davesas@tiac.net Resist or Serve.
