instructions. Discard water and return ears to pot with water to

and simmer for 45 minutes, or until ears are tender. Remove ears,
let cool and chill. Cut into thin strips (1/8 inch).

Combine pigs' ears, carrots, cucumbers and onions and toss lightly

lemon juice if a slightly tart flavor is desired. Serve on crisp
lettuce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Serves 6.
