For a more intense sesame flavor, lightly toast the sesame oil in a dry pan for a minute before adding it to the dressing.
Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes according to your spice preference.
If you don't have red leaf lettuce, romaine or butter lettuce can be substituted.
For added texture and flavor, consider adding toasted sesame seeds or a sprinkle of crushed nori seaweed.
