Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Begin by preparing the salad ingredients. Rinse the mixed salad greens under cold water and dry them using a salad spinner or by patting them with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Slice the cucumber into thin rounds and the radishes into thin slices. Julienne the carrot into thin strips.

  3. 3

    Chop the green onions and set aside.

  4. 4

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the salad greens, cucumber, radishes, carrot, and green onions.

Wagyu Beef Preparation

  1. 5

    Bring a pot of water to a boil. Lightly blanch the thinly sliced Wagyu beef in the boiling water for about 10-15 seconds until just cooked. Remove immediately and transfer to a plate.

  2. 6

    Let the beef cool slightly before adding it to the salad bowl with the greens and vegetables.

Goma Dressing Preparation

  1. 7

    In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, sugar, and water until smooth.

  2. 8

    Add sesame oil, salt, and pepper to taste, whisking until all ingredients are well combined.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Once all components are ready, pour the goma dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  2. 10

    Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds on top of the salad.

  3. 11

    Serve immediately, garnishing with additional green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
