Sesame Salad Dressing

Valene made this simple yet wonderful salad for Bucket.  The recipe is really for an easy and tasty broccolini dish that I'll post later but she used it for a salad dressing, over mixed greens, with sliced pear, a ball of Danish soft blue cheese in the middle and she sprinkled it all with a titachmore sesame seeds.  Delish!
