For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing for a subtle kick.
Toasted slivered almonds or chopped peanuts make a great addition for added crunch.
This salad can be prepared ahead of time. Just store the dressed broccoli separately from the sesame seeds and combine just before serving to maintain the sesame seeds' crunchiness.
If you don't have rice vinegar, apple cider vinegar can be substituted.
Consider adding shredded carrots or thinly sliced red onions for added color and nutrients.
