4 quarts (2 pounds) fresh mung bean sprouts
Bring large pot of water to boil. Boil the bean sprouts for 5 minutes and then drain. Place bean sprouts in a large bowl with a cover.
Mix remaining ingredients together and pour over the bean sprouts. Toss to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for an hour or more until well-chilled. Toss bean sprouts with marinade again just before serving. Will keep 2 or 3 days in the refrigerator.
Poster's Notes:
Toasted sesame seeds are a little more intense. And toasted sesame seed oil is sweeter and gives a better taste to the recipe. Both "the toast" comments are my additions.
I usually put the salad in a Tupperware container the size of a lasagna pan and just keep turning it over and then over again.
