Asian Arame Salad

Saturday, April 26, 2014

1 cup dried arame
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 large carrot, cut into matchsticks
1 haas (english) cucumber, halved lengthwise and sliced
Optional: sliced pickled ginger (Eden brand, no preservatives or dyes) but
this is NOT a paleo ingredient, as it is pickled in rice vinegar. To make it
paleo, you could add some fresh ginger juice and ume vinegar (which is not a
true vinegar)

Soak, drain and cook arame according to package instructions (I don't have
this in front of me, there is no arame in my pantry right now). It will
double in volume. Mix cooled arame with all other ingredients, dressing if
desired with toasted sesame oil, sesame seeds, and ume vinegar. Very
delicious! Won't keep more than a day.

Arame also makes a great "bed" (like rice or pasta) for steamed or grilled
fish, especially salmon, or vegetables.
