Slice cucumbers, avocados, and scallions and combine in a bowl with the dressing. Serve alongside your ginger-miso salmon fillets and white rice.

Toasted sesame oil or non-toasted sesame oil? I’m assuming non-toasted from the way the ingredients list reads. A tablespoon of the toasted stuff would be pretty intense, but the other ingredients are strong in their own right & might balance just fine.
