This is the recipe that is the basis for "Chicken Tender and Cucumber Shira-ae with Umeboshi Flavor". I didn't think it was worth posting as a separate recipe, but putting it in one recipe made it too long so I separated the recipe.I used honey marinated umeboshi that weigh about 15 g with the pits (the same ones I used forto make "Chicken Tender and Cucumber Shira-ae with Umeboshi Flavor"). Adjust the amount to your taste.This is delicious with the addition of julienned green shiso leaves mixed in or topped as a garnish. Recipe by Sabumochi

My husband brought home a lot of mizuna greens from his parents' house, so I wanted to eat them up while they were still fresh.I used umeboshi that were soft and a little sweet.If you crush the sesame seeds between your fingertips while mixing them into the sauce, it brings out the aroma.

I'm trying to expand my steamed chicken salad repertoire right now.This is a bulky and moist salad made with cheap chicken breast meat and radish sprouts.It goes so well with the mentaiko mayonnaise that I just had to upload this recipe It makes a fantastic snack too.Thanks to steaming the meat in Step 2 it comes out tender and moist. Remember to cover the pan with a lid here.I used spicy mustard mentaiko this time.Please adjust the amount of wasabi to your preferences.Please shred the chicken into whatever sized pieces you like.

This is a delicious way to enjoy chicken breast.The chicken is marinated, so the salad has a really good flavor. Follow Steps 1-3 for parboiling and the chicken will be very moist and not dry. Chicken breast is very light, so it goes really well with rich, thick mayonnaise. I also recommend making a double batch so you can use the chicken to make sandwiches the next day!

I thought of this recipe to consume the daikon radish we harvested from our vegetable garden.Water will seep out of the daikon once the ingredients are added, so make this just before serving.I think it's better if you add enough wasabi to taste the bite. Make sure not to add too much soy sauce. ♪ Recipe by Kohatenhaha

The cabbage and chicken tenders are perfect with the miso mayonnaise.If you cook the chicken tenders too long they will become dry and hard.Turn the heat off as soon as the pan comes to a boil and take it off the heat source. That way the you'll have moist chicken. For 2-4 servings. Recipe by Jina shufu

I made this with things I already had in the refrigerator when I thought I needed one more item for dinner.Adjust the amount of vegetables you use to your liking. The vegetables are very hot just out of the microwave, so be careful. If you're having this as a hot salad, warm the bowl over hot water for a while, it will be even hotter and nicer. Please adjust the microwaving time according to your liking. For 2-3 servings. Recipe by John Lee Cooker

The added mayo makes this an easy to eat salad for the kids.Make sure to squeeze out the moisture from the wakame seaweed and the onion at Step 1 in order to prevent the salad from getting watery. The sesame oil and sugar in the dressing make this salad easy to eat even for kids, who normally don't like raw onion. If you are serving this to adults only, add a little ra-yu spicy sesame oil or mustard. For 4 servings. Recipe by LaLaHappy1

It’s a light side dish and goes well with pork cutlet.

This is a cucumber version of my popular "Easy Spinach and Chikuwa with Mayonnaise and Ponzu".I tried adding more ground sesame seeds to increase the flavour.My 1-year-old son won't eat fresh vegetables, but he loves this and eats it all up.Make sure you squeeze out the cucumber well!

I make this salad whenever I have some leftover nori seaweed from an opened packet.I use a 3x concentrated mentsuyu.Adjust the amount of seasonings depending on how watery the vegetables are.I often use chirimen jako (cooked, salted and semi-dried tiny sardines) instead of seaweed. Recipe by MyT09

I saw some okara at the tofu store, so I thought I'd turn it into a quick salad first.Buy your okara from a tofu store if you can, and use it the day you get it. (Be sure to use okara that hasn't reached its best-by date.) For 4 servings. Recipe by Kyoku
