AVOCADO WITH SOY-LIME VINAIGRETTE
State Bird Provisions on Fillmore Street in San Francisco is the brainchild of a wife-and-husband team of native Californians, Nicole Krasinski and Stuart Brioza. At the restaurant, food is brought out on carts, as it is in dim-sum parlors. Although the concept is familiar to everyone at this point, these are laden not with the mostly brown and steamed food common to dim-sum places but with gorgeous, far-out, inventively served creations. Many of their dishes were too complicated for me to deal with. This dish, though, is representative of the restaurant's food, highly flavored, unusual, delicious.

Steps:
- Combine the first 6 ingredients in a bowl; let sit as little as a half-hour and up to 2 hours; strain, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible. Whisk in the grapeseed oil to make a vinaigrette.
- Peel, pit and slice the avocados; arrange them on 2 or 4 plates; dress to taste. Sprinkle with salt, togarashi or pepper and toasted sesame seeds, and serve.
SESAME CUCUMBER AND AVOCADO SALAD
Crispy cucumber and creamy avocado perform a delicate dance with earthy notes of sesame in this most simple of salads. Thin-skinned varieties such as Persian or English cucumbers work best, as they are almost seedless with a robust flesh that stays crisp. But don't worry if you only have access to seedy cucumbers: Peel them if their skins are thick, then cut them in half lengthwise and scrape out the seeds before slicing. No-cook and ready in a matter of minutes, this elegant salad can be dressed up according to your mood. It is a satisfying meal on its own, but it can also be served alongside cold soba noodles, or with brown rice and a fried or jammy egg on top.

Steps:
- Make the dressing: Place the sesame oil, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, sugar, soy sauce and red-pepper flakes into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water and whisk until emulsified. Taste, and adjust seasonings. (Dressing should taste acidic, a little sweet and salty.)
- When you're ready to eat, prepare the salad: Halve the avocados and discard the pits. Using a small paring knife, carefully score the avocado flesh into 1/2-inch cubes, avoiding cutting through the skin. Use a large spoon to scoop out the avocado flesh (in one spoonful, if possible), as close to the skin as possible. Transfer avocado cubes to a large bowl and add the dressing; toss gently.
- Add the cucumbers and scallions and toss everything together. Season with salt and black pepper, top with more sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
