This lightly pickled mix of vegetables and seaweed is especially good with seafood.
Ingredients
- 1 ounce dried wakame
- 1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
- 1/2 English hothouse cucumber or 2 kirby cucumbers, sliced 1/4" thick
- 1/4 medium daikon (Japanese white radish; about 6 ounces), peeled, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Soak wakame in a small bowl of cold water 20 minutes. Drain and squeeze wakame gently to remove excess water. Cut into 1-2" pieces.
- Meanwhile, bring vinegar, sugar, salt, peppercorns, and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan, whisking to dissolve sugar and salt. Let cool.
- Combine wakame, cucumber, daikon, and pickling liquid in a medium bowl. Cover and chill at least 24 hours. Drain excess liquid just before serving.
- Do ahead: Salad can be made 3 days ahead; keep chilled.
