Japanese spinach with sesame sauce (horenso no goma-ae)
Traditionally the spinach in this dish is boiled until it's wilted, but I figured if I can make raw kale or chard into a tender raw salad, why would I need to wilt spinach? The sesame seeds are also usually toasted. This is based on a recipe from 'Japanese Cooking' by Miyoko Nishimoto Schinner.
Nori Wraps (nut free!)
Easy, quick, and simple nori wraps that aren't full of nuts. Keep well in the fridge for a day or two - I like to make them to take to work!
Arame and Shiitake Mushroom Salad served on Watercress
This is a very flavoursome salad. You could use other seaweeds also, in the image I used arame and sea spaghetti because I didn't have enough arame.
