For an extra layer of flavor, lightly toast the sesame seeds before adding the oil. Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes to your preferred level of spice. If you don't have unseasoned rice vinegar, white wine vinegar can be substituted. Feel free to add other vegetables like julienned carrots or thinly sliced red onion. To make it a heartier salad, add grilled chicken or steak.
