Soak dried seaweed in water until it's fully rehydrated.
Rinse the seaweed and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sugar to create the dressing.
Toss the seaweed in the dressing until well-coated.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes before serving.
Notes
Rinse seaweed thoroughly to remove any grit.
• Cut the seaweed into bite-sized pieces for easy eating.
• Balance the dressing flavors – it should be a mix of sweet, salty, and tangy.
• Chill the salad before serving for a refreshing taste.
• Toast the sesame seeds for extra flavor if desired.
