Place wok or nonstick pan over high heat for about 1 minute, or until it smokes. Add the sesame seeds. Turn the heat to low, and dry cook for 3-5 minutes, or until brown. Empty onto a flat plate. Steam the string beans 3-5 minutes, or until they have softened but still have some crunch. Remove and plunge them into a bowl of ice-cold water. Drain, dry, remove stems ends and place in large bowl. To make dressing, mix the vinegar, soy sauce, mustard sauce, sugar and sesame oil.
