Sea weed salad?

topic posted Thu, May 17, 2007 - 10:50 AM by  offlineAlicia
There is a little Japanese sushi place I love to go to here in town. They serve a sea weed salad that is just wonderful. It tastes almost like it has a kind of vinaigrette type dressing. Does anyone know what I'm talking about or a recipe for it?

      Surely it is made with vinegar-(sunomono), but there are many kinds...

      It probably was wakame with cucumber, maybe some red onions and maybe also with another kind of seaweed.

      The dressing could just be rice vinegar with a bit of sugar and salt or have added mirin, a little soy and sesame oil.

      I would just use rice vinegar, a little soy and some sesame oil but I am sure the restaurant has sweetened it some. I don't use sugar like most people do.
