SOMEN SALAD



Somen Salad image

Somen salad is extra refreshing on warm days. It's a chilled noodle dish with toppings (like fish cake, cucumbers, carrots, egg), and a flavorful sauce poured all over the noodles. Great to make ahead and serve chilled.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 bundles (3-4 ounces each) dried somen noodles
3 ounces kamaboko, thinly sliced
1 small cucumber, julienned
1 small carrot, julienned
2 eggs, scrambled and thinly sliced
2 stalks green onions, chopped
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • First step is to prepare all the toppings. Thinly slice the kamaboko (or can use char siu, ham, or Spam). Julienne the cucumber and carrot. Chop the green onions. Scramble the eggs, let cool, and then thinly slice.
  • Second step is to prepare the sauce. Put the chicken broth, sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil together in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stir to dissolve the sugar. Pour in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Now cook the somen noodles. Bring water to a boil. Slice in the two bundles of dried somen noodles and cook for 3 minutes. Drain immediately and rinse with cold water (this stops the somen from cooking and cools the noodles).
  • Then it is time to assemble! Divide the somen noodles between two bowls and top with the kamaboko, cucumber, carrots, green onions, and egg. Use as much or as little of the toppings as you prefer. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
  • Pour the sauce all over the noodles/toppings. Mix with chopsticks and eat. Enjoy ^_^

KAMABOKO SALAD



Kamaboko Salad image

This is from a U of Hawaii website. Evidently the kamaboko available in Hawaii is much larger that the crab sticks that are available in the US midwest, but I hope they will be an acceptable substitute. Since there is such a strong Japanese influence on the culture of Hawaii, I'm including this for ZWT 7.
