I am amazed! My DH asked if I could try to make some seaweed salad, (like the one he recently had a local restaurant) because he loved it! I had never had it, so went on an adventure in finding a suitable recipe. Of course, Rita would have it! I followed this exactly, and we both loved this....it was healthy, great tasting, and so easy! A must try!! Even if you think you won't like it, I loved it, and I never thought I would. Made for Diabetic Tailgate Party!<br/>September 2012

Tweaks

I made this recipe exactly as suggested as I always do the first time. The tweaks I would make are: 1. Ratio of wakame to rice vinegar is off-balance...less vinegar, more wakame; 2. I also will try the tweak re: wasabi vs. pepper flake; I like the cilantro, though, as I can eat cilantro on practically anything. :-)
