Ingredients:
1/2 pound green beans, trimmed
2 cups seasoned rice vinegar
2 cups white vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
12 black peppercorns
12 cilantro sprigs
4 garlic cloves, crushed

Directions:
Cook green beans in boiling water 1 minute. Drain and plunge beans into ice water; drain. Combine rice vinegar and next 3 ingredients (through salt) in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook until sugar dissolves. Combine beans, squash, and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Pour hot vinegar mixture over squash mixture. Toss well.
