Healthy and refreshing seaweed salad recipe. Served with cherry tomato over green leaf lettuce and drizzled with miso dressing, this vibrant salad is a delicious change to the usual salads at your dinner table.
Soak ½ oz dried seaweed salad mix in cold water for 5–8 minutes. Drain the seaweed and squeeze out the excess water. Serve the seaweed in individual bowls or large serving bowl. Chill the salad before serving.
For the dressing, use a mortar and pestle (Japanese suribachi and surikogi) to grind 1 tsp toasted white sesame seeds. This will add a nice aroma and texture to the dressing.
In a small bowl, combine the Miso Dressing ingredients: 1 Tbsp miso, 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp rice vinegar (unseasoned), 1 tsp toasted sesame oil, 1 tsp mirin, and the ground sesame seeds. Whisk together.
Put the dressing in a small bowl or dressing bottle. Mix or shake the dressing before pouring to the salad. Sprinkle additional sesame seeds for garnish, if you‘d like.
