Bean Sprout and Aburaage Salad with Yuzu Pepper Dressing

When bean sprouts are cheap, I tend to buy a lot of it but it goes bad quickly, so I made a salad so I could use them up. I added aburaage, which I had in the refrigerator.
Be sure not to overboil the bean sprouts! Just blanch them in order to retain their crunchy crispy texture.
Adjust the amount of mayonnaise and soy sauce to taste.
If you add too much mayonnaise, the salad will get soggy, so watch for that. Recipe by Ri-ka

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.

I made this when I was out of dressing. It was really good, so I've been relying on it ever since.This is also good with mizuna greens or green bell peppers instead of cucumber.If you leave it standing for too long the tofu will start to exude moisture, so I recommend making it just before you plan to eat it.
