I was served this side salad at a few restaurants and loved its nutty flavor and utter simplicity. The key is roasted ground sesame seeds: Look for roasted ground sesame seeds at Korean markets. They're not ground to a powder but crushed a bit. You can make your own by toasting sesame seeds until deeply golden, allowing them to cool, and crushing with a mortar and pestle. Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons roasted ground sesame seeds |
1 tablespoon coarsely ground korean chile (gochugaru) |
1 1/2 tablespoons dark sesame oil |
1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
1 1/2 teaspoons lower-sodium soy sauce |
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt |
6 cups torn romaine lettuce |
1/3 cup slivered red onion |
Directions:
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add lettuce and onion; toss to coat. Serve immediately. |
