For a richer, nuttier flavor, toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly golden before adding them to the sauce. Adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes to your desired level of spiciness. A pinch of cayenne pepper adds an extra layer of heat. If using as a coleslaw dressing, toss with shredded cabbage, carrots, and your favorite slaw additions. Add sunflower seeds and crispy chow mein noodles just before serving to maintain their crunch. The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
