seaweed salad

Kelp-based appetizer dish

Seaweed salad is a cold dish of marinated seaweed, typically seasoned with sesame oil, rice vinegar, and soy sauce.

The bright green strands usually come from wakame, a mild-flavored kelp.

Common in Japanese and Korean cuisine, it appears as a side dish or appetizer at sushi restaurants: We started with edamame and seaweed salad.
