Seaweed Salad is about flavor and crunch

Let’s be honest, seaweed salad is not the star of the show, but it’s a really important supporting player to any authentic Japanese meal. I would nominate it for best supporting actor, for sure. It’s got an amazing vibrant color, and fantastic crunch coming from the seaweed itself but also a few sesame seeds, and finished with a touch of sesame oil. It’s tasty, and fantastic with Japanese rice, if you were going to get another appetizer with it, I would recommend the Karaage chicken, which is our house made Japanese style fried chicken bites! Seaweed salad is important though, cause it adds green to your plate and that extra fiber that we all need!
