Lunch: Green Papaya Salad with Curry-Lime Dressing

Gewürztraminer is so in concert with this dish, it's almost orchestral," restaurateur Peter Kasperski notes. He loves how the wine's sweet spiciness enhances the fish sauce, curry and cilantro in the salad.

2 tbsp. lime juice
1 tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tbsp. mirin
1/2 tsp. Thai red curry paste
1/2 tsp. mild curry powder
