Seaweed Salad is a light Japanese-style side dish made with tender wakame seaweed tossed in a simple dressing with sesame, vinegar, and a touch of sweetness. It has a refreshing ocean flavor with a soft, slightly chewy texture that feels clean, savory, and thankfully more interesting than another bowl of plain greens.
This dish can be made gluten-free by using tamari instead of regular soy sauce and checking that the dressing ingredients are wheat-free. It pairs beautifully with sushi-style meals, rice bowls, grilled fish, tofu, or miso soup, making it a fresh and flavorful side for everyday meals or Japanese-inspired dinners.
Why you’ll love it:
Light, refreshing, and savory
Easy to make gluten-free with safe dressing
Great with rice bowls, fish, or tofu
Full of sesame flavor and ocean freshness
