Korean Salad with Sesame Dressing
Description
This quick and easy Korean-style salad is full of peppery, tangy notes. It pairs perfectly with barbecue short ribs or a flavorful bowl of bibimbap.
Ingredients
•
1 head red leaf lettuce
•
4 green onions (white part only)
•
1/4 cup soy sauce
•
5 tablespoons water
•
2 teaspoons white sugar
•
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
•
2 tablespoons sesame oil
•
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
Directions
1
Cut lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place into a salad bowl. Thinly slice green onion whites lengthwise into long strips; if they curl as you slice them, they are perfectly thin. Add green onions to the salad bowl.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk soy sauce, water, sugar, vinegar, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes.
3
Just before serving, pour dressing over lettuce and green onions; toss until well coated.
