  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

    Spread sesame seed in 8-inch skillet; cook and stir over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes or until golden brown, stirring constantly. Remove seed from skillet; set aside.
  • 2

    In small bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar and sugar; mix well. Add cucumbers and zucchini; toss gently until well coated. Sprinkle with sesame seed.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you don’t have rice vinegar, distilled white vinegar can be used instead. Enjoy this recipe using all cucumber or all zucchini instead of the combination.
  • tip 2
    This light Asian salad tastes great served with julienne carrots and sliced roast beef.
