Ingredients

1⁄2 cup sesame seeds, toasted

1⁄4 cup soy sauce

2 tbsp. sugar

Kosher salt, to taste

1 lb. green beans, trimmed

2 tbsp. rice vinegar

2 tbsp. finely chopped scallions

2 tsp. minced fresh ginger

Directions

Step 1

In a spice grinder or a mortar, finely grind 6 tbsp. sesame seeds. Transfer to a small food processor. Add remaining sesame seeds, soy sauce, and sugar; process into a paste. Set aside.

Step 2

Bring an 8-qt. pot of salted water to a boil. Add beans; cook until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beans to a large bowl of ice water; let chill. Drain and dry beans. Whisk vinegar, scallions, and ginger with reserved sesame paste in a bowl; add beans and toss.
