Recipe Description
The Classic Vegan Hijiki Salad is a refreshing and nourishing dish that brings the sea’s bounty to your table with its main component, hijiki seaweed. Rich in dietary fiber and essential minerals such as calcium, iron, and magnesium, this salad is not only a healthful choice but a celebration of Japanese culinary tradition in a vegan format. Coupled with crisp cucumbers, sweet carrots, edamame for protein, and avocados for healthy fats, each bite offers a complex texture and flavor profile. Dressed in a simple yet savory dressing of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and a touch of maple syrup for sweetness, it balances the umami-rich seaweed perfectly. Ideal for those looking to incorporate more sea vegetables into their diets or enjoy a taste of Japan, this hijiki salad is a delightful experience.
