If you haven't bought it yet, you're missing out! "Raw wakame" makes delicious "white dashi rice" and "choregi salad"
Hello. I am Ayumi Nakaganji, a chef.
It's the season when raw wakame and mekabu are delicious. Wakame is available throughout the year, but at this time of year you can get fresh raw wakame that is chewy and fragrant. It's low in calories and full of nutrients such as dietary fiber and minerals, so it's something you should consume frequently. (※1)
So this time, we'll introduce you to some delicious recipes for eating raw wakame seaweed that you can try this time of year.
I have previously introduced how to prepare raw wakame seaweed, so please check that out too.Here.

"Choregi salad" is a staple salad at izakayas and convenience stores. You can easily make it deliciously by mixing familiar ingredients without relying on store-bought dressings! You can eat lots of raw wakame seaweed and leafy vegetables.

[Ingredients] (Serves 2-3)
White rice・・・2 cups
White soup stock・・・30ml
Fresh wakame (boiled)・・・100g (10g if using dried)
White sesame seeds... appropriate amount
<How to make>
(1) Wash the rice and soak it for 30 minutes. Drain it in a colander and place it in the inner pot of the rice cooker. Add the white dashi and add up to 2 cups of water (if using a pot, add 370ml of water and cook).
(2) Cook rice as usual.
(3) Chop the fresh wakame (if using dried wakame, soak it in water, drain it, and chop it).
(4) Mix (3) into the cooked white rice.
Just by adding white dashi to rice and cooking it, the rice becomes a side dish. In addition to mixing in wakame seaweed, it is also delicious with tempura musubi, egg on rice, and grated yam rice. This time, I used Kubara's white dashi.
Be sure to include some fresh wakame seaweed at your dinner table. (Text by Ayumi Nakaganji)
