This crisp Korean salad combines thinly sliced cabbage and radish with a simple, flavourful dressing.

Prepare the radishes by washing them, trimming the ends, and slicing them thinly.
Crush the toasted sesame seeds using a mortar and pestle, or use Chinese sesame paste. Combine this with all the other dressing components.
