sauce to the previously prepared sesame paste & mix together thoroughly.
Pour the sesame dressing into a large bowl, add the drained string beans &
toss together until the vegetables are thoroughly coated. Taste for
seasoning adding more salt if necessary. Serve at room temperature in small
bowls, as a first course, salad or part of a Japanese meal.
