Steps

  1. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Tip onto a plate right away so they do not scorch.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk the vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, neutral oil, ginger, sugar and red pepper flakes until the sugar dissolves.

  3. Add the cabbage, carrots and green onions and toss well. Let sit so the cabbage softens slightly and absorbs the dressing.

  4. Toss again, fold in the cilantro and most of the sesame seeds, and scatter the rest on top. Serve within 2 hours.
