Kim Dae-seok's Dried Seaweed Salad

A clean and refreshing side dish made by briefly soaking dried seaweed, blanching it, then marinating it with a tangy-sweet seasoning of twice-concentrated vinegar and salt, resulting in a crisp, non-soggy texture perfect for rice.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not soak the seaweed longer than 5 minutes or blanch it more than 1 minute, as this will ruin the chewy texture.
  • Use twice-concentrated vinegar instead of regular vinegar to minimize moisture and prevent the dish from becoming bland.
  • Avoid adding soy sauce, as it can make the flavor heavy and greasy—season only with salt for a clean taste.
  • Squeeze the blanched seaweed as hard as possible to remove all moisture, ensuring the dressing adheres properly and doesn’t pool on top.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to quickly prepare a tangy-sweet side dish in no time.
  • People who prefer a clean, refreshing seaweed salad seasoned simply with vinegar and salt.
  • Anyone looking to make a flavorful side dish year-round using dried seaweed readily available at home.
