Do you like exotic things? Then this vitamin bomb from Japan is for you! Look. Chuka (or wakame) seaweed is a fairly popular ingredient in many traditional Japanese dishes. The Japanese are famous for their careful approach to food selection; their daily diet contains only healthy and necessary products, including chuka seaweed. Wakame can be bought frozen or pickled; they are a self-sufficient product in themselves; you just need to pour some dressing on them. I like chuka salad in combination with nut sauce, but since finding it is quite problematic, we’ll prepare it ourselves

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 15 mins

STEP 1
Here are the necessary ingredients for chuka salad. If the seaweed is frozen, you need to defrost it first, but I took pickled seaweed. Chuka salad is essentially seaweed, tossed in dressing and sprinkled with sesame seeds. But first things first!
STEP 2
Fry the sesame seeds a little
STEP 3
That's how beautiful it turned out
STEP 4
Now add all the other ingredients to the wakama: sesame oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, water, starch, sprinkle with sesame seeds and mix everything. That's all - our chuka salad is ready! I repeat, you can eat it in this form. But it will be even tastier in combination with nut sauce.
STEP 5
And for it we will need: peanuts, sesame seeds, sesame oil, sugar, a little mustard, water, lemon juice and soy sauce (for some reason I forgot to photograph it). If you wish, you can add vegetable oil - I did, but it turned out a bit greasy for my taste, next time I will do it without it
STEP 6
Roast peanuts with sesame seeds
STEP 7
Grind in a blender for 2-3 minutes
STEP 8
This is what happened
STEP 9
Now add all the other ingredients. Rub for a few more minutes until smooth.
STEP 10
The sauce I got was quite thick, I like it this way. This is for everyone - the taste and consistency can be varied, if you want it more liquid - add some water, taste and add ingredients to your liking!
STEP 11
That's how handsome he is!
STEP 12
Now put our chuka on a plate and serve with nut sauce and lemon!
STEP 13
Let's get some vitamins! Bon appetit!

A very healthy salad with seaweed, I’m saving the recipe. I also really like sushi cake with nori and red fish - an amazing layered salad for the holiday table!

I love this salad. Thanks for the detailed recipe. I bought chuka in a 1kg bag, but I didn’t know how to make nut sauce. Thanks again
