Ingredients:

Serving

2 oz snow-pea shoots, halved (2 cups)
3/4 lb trimmed kohlrabi bulbs
1/3 cup japanese-style sesame seeds (not hulled), toasted
3 tbsp plus 1 tsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tsp sugar
2 tsp mirin ( japanese sweet rice wine)
1 tbsp water

Directions:

Bring 2 quarts water to a boil with 2 teaspoons salt, then quickly blanch pea shoots until color brightens, about 10 seconds. Drain immediately and transfer to a bowl of cold water to stop cooking. Drain and pat dry.
Peel kohlrabi bulbs with a small sharp knife, then cut into matchsticks with slicer. Toss together with shoots in a serving dish.
Finely grind sesame seeds in suribachi or grinder, then transfer to a bowl and stir in remaining ingredients. (Dressing will be thick; thin slightly with additional water if desired.)
Serve salad drizzled with some of dressing and serve remainder on the side.
Cooks' note: Salad and dressing can be made 1 day ahead and chilled separately, covered. If dressing is too thick to drizzle, thin with 1 teaspoon water.
