Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds (, cooked)
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large clove garlic
- 4 cups mixed green salad to serve with (*see footnote)
Method
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium low heat and add black sesame seeds. Cook and stir occasionally until fragrant, in 5 to 8 minutes.
- Transfer sesame seeds to a mortar and grind with a pestle until turned into coarse flakes.
- Combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, and half the sesame seed flakes in a medium-sized bowl and mix well. Smash garlic into a paste and add it into the bowl. Taste the dressing and add more sesame seeds if you prefer it a bit nuttier. Mix well and let it stand for 10 minutes.
- Wash and prepare vegetables.
- Drizzle dressing on salad before serving.
