Thanks! I really enjoy it big time. The dressing is definately enhanced with the sesame oil.

OK, this was great! It will be going to every pot luck this summer. It's a gorgeous dish, too. I used half the shoyu and half the olive oil. Cant wait to try it w/ the sesame oil.

It's the only cold pressed, not toasted, yadda yadda...of sesame oil that I have had, so I have nothing to compare it to. ;) Tropical Traditions has pretty good sales that change weekly. :)

Ya gotta love a good quickie! (wink)
emilyjayne, have you found a good raw or cold pressed sesame oil? I only have toasted right now and dont like the burnt taste. I will sub olive this time cuz it sounds so good I want to make it but if you have a brand name I could hunt down I'd appreciate it. THX
