I thought up a recipe that features the rich fragrance and mild tartness of balsamic vinegar.If you eat it just after mixing everything together, it's lightly flavored, but if you let it rest for a while in the refrigerator, the flavors become more assertive like a marinated salad.The cooking times specified in Steps 4 and 5 are approximates. Adjust the times depending on the thickness of the chicken meat, your cooking equipment and so on. For 2 to 4 servings. Recipe by caramel-cookie

Ramen Salad with Sesame Dressing at Home Ramen Salad with Sesame Dressing at Home
This dish was born in Hokkaido. You don't see it as much at restaurants anymore... but I thought it should be easy to make at home.After some research, I came up with an easy sesame dressing!This is a delicious dish on its own, and looks healthy too. Why not make it for your kids, or for a potluck party?If you think the dressing is too sweet, use less sugar.You can make a lot of this salad and store it for later, but it's easy so you can make it as you need it. Serving individual portions makes it easier to eat. I recommend this for lunch.If you add spice with doubanjiang or yangnyumjang, you can quickly transform it into a spice-touced dish.

Japanese Seaweed Salad with Sesame & Miso Dressing Japanese Seaweed Salad with Sesame & Miso Dressing
Japanese seaweed salad with sesame and miso dressing is a quick and very refreshing recipe which is perfect to eat during the hot summer weather. I will share with you two different ways to prepare this salad. One with Japanese mustard greens (mizuna); and one with cucumber, red leaf lettuce and tomato.35 years ago in Japan, I was introduced to the Japanese seaweed salad(Kaisou Sarada in Japanese) and fell in love with this dish. An authentic Japanese seaweed salad is not the same as those you get in the Japanese restaurant in the State. If you’ve ever had it, it actually tastes so much better.Video instruction: youtu.be/6XfgAMoe_Gs
