Place a pan on the stove and dry roast the sesame seeds. Shake the pan frequently to ensure even roasting. Transfer the roasted seeds to a bowl and let cool.

  2. Remove any tough stems from the cooled seaweed and cut into shorter strips if they are too long. In a bowl, mix together vinegar, soy sauce, and sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Place the seaweed in a smaller bowl and pour the soy mixture over it. Sprinkle the sesame seeds on top and serve the salad.
