For a deeper sesame flavor, lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan before adding them to the zucchini mixture. Adjust the amount of teriyaki and soy sauce to your liking, depending on the desired level of saltiness and sweetness. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a subtle kick to the dish. This dish is best served immediately to maintain the zucchini's tender-crisp texture.
