[Ads-l] -forward

[Laurence Horn]

I don't think it has to be "main ingredient", more like
"defining/establishing ingredient". If you google "gin-forward drinks",
Negroni pops up and we all know that's exactly 1/3 gin.  But then again I
also found a web site in which a negroni (with the same 1/3 gin, 1/3
Campari, 1/3 vermouth ratio) is described as a Campari-forward drink, so I
think it's partly pragmatic, based on what one might have been expecting or
comparing it with. I found some gochujang-forward marinades in which
gochujang is not the primary ingredient, but is represented more
prominently than is usual or expected.

--LH, a fan of gin, Campari, and gochujang, not necessarily together
