Sesame Jellyfish Salad image

I learned to love sesame-flavoured jellyfish from having it at Chinese banquets growing up. Now I make this variation of jellyfish salad with chopped or grated veggies and a spicy sesame sauce. This makes a refreshing and delicious side dish or Chinese-style shared dish. Jellyfish is flavourless, but it is delightfully crunchy and lends itself to various flavour combinations. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

I'm not sure about the combination of jellyfish and sesame. It sounds a bit strange.

I'm allergic to sesame, so I'm wondering if there's a substitute I could use for the sesame dressing.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as I hoped. The jellyfish was a bit too chewy, and the dressing was too thick. I'll try again with some adjustments.
