Recipe from Angeli Wahlstedt

• 1/2 cucumber, sliced thinly (peeled and seeded, if you like)
  
• 1/2 cup *rice vinegar
  
• 1/2 tblsp brown sugar
  
• 1/2 tblsp water
  
• 1 tsp soy sauce
  
• 1 tsp sesame seeds
  
• few drops of sesame oil

1. Put all of the above (except the cucumber) in a medium glass jar, close it with a lid and shake.
   
   
2. If you don't plan on eating the salad right away, you can put the dressing in the fridge for a while...it tastes better when it's been chilled for an hour or so.
   
   
3. When you're ready to serve, put the cucumbers in dishes or small bowls, and pour the dressing over them.
   
   
4. Fake crabmeat tastes good in this dressing, too.
   
   
5. Serves 1 or 2

	* You need rice vinegar -- it won't taste right with any other kind of vinegar. Also because I rarely use measuring cups, the proportions in the recipe may be a little off...you may have to taste the dressing eacho time you add something. The end result should taste sweet and somewhat vinegar-like, with a tint of sesame.
