Ingredients

1/2 lb sugar snap peas, trimmed and, if large, halved diagonally
1 English cucumber, halved lengthwise and seeded
1 bunch radishes (1 lb)

    Cut halved cucumber and radishes crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices.

    Step 3

    Toss peas, cucumber, radishes, and sesame seeds with vinegars and season with salt and pepper.
