1
Prepare the Seaweed
Start by rehydrating the dried wakame seaweed. Place it in a bowl and cover it with warm water. Let it soak for about 10 minutes, or until it expands and softens.
2
Chop the Vegetables
While the seaweed is soaking, wash and peel the cucumber and carrot. Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips. Set them aside in a mixing bowl.
3
Make the Dressing
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
4
Combine Ingredients
Once the seaweed has soaked and is tender, drain it and squeeze out excess water. Add the rehydrated seaweed to the bowl with the cucumber and carrot.
5
Add Dressing and Garnish
Pour the dressing over the seaweed and vegetables. Toss gently to combine. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top for garnish.
6
Serve
Transfer the seaweed salad to a serving dish and enjoy it immediately, or chill it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes for a refreshing cold salad.
