おかひじき dressed in vinegar

In the summer, sour and spicy dishes are indispensable.

It was my first time to see this bit bazaar-looking veg, called おかひじき, but I tried to search for a recipe on the internet and came across to one. Though the original suggested to use their own source mixture, I used simple vinegar and honey. This dish was unexpectedly good and refreshing. Recommended.



Ingredients are

- おかひじき

- thin fried tofu (うすあげ)

- vinegar

- honey or salt as you like

- soy source



Prepare boiled water and add a bit of salt. Cook おかひじき for 2-3min. Briefly fry うすあげ and cut into narrow rectangles.

Add as much as vinegar, honey (or sugar?) and soy source (or salt if you do not have soy source).
