Seaweed Salad

Seaweed Salad is a refreshing dish featuring tender seaweed marinated in a savory dressing. The dressing combines the rich umami flavors of soy sauce and miso paste with the sweetness of mirin, the nuttiness of sesame oil, and the tang of rice vinegar. A hint of chili pepper adds a subtle kick to this light and healthy salad.

The Seaweed Salad, with its umami flavors from soy sauce, miso paste, and seaweed, pairs well with a crisp white wine like Chardonnay. The wine's medium body and subtle oak notes complement the salad's savory taste and fresh texture. Alternatively, a light-bodied Pinot Noir or a sparkling wine can cut through the dish's rich flavors and cleanse the palate between bites.
