I think you'll find that the mustard at Chinese restaurants is more akin
to Dijon-style or English Pub Mustard. That is, ground mustard mixed
with water and no vinegar to kill the heat. I love it - especially when
you breathe it out through your nose and you can feel your nasal hair
shrivel.
 
ENJOY!!!
