  It is important that all ingredients in this recipe be well chilled.
  
  Prepare pigs' ears according to Steps I and II in the basic
  instructions. Discard water and return ears to pot with water to
  cover, star anise and ginger.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover
  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
  with plum sauce.  Season with salt and pepper and a little fresh
  lemon juice if a slightly tart flavor is desired.  Serve on crisp
  lettuce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  
  Serves 6.

  well...  S.C.]
