Recipe

Soak 120g of hijiki in 500ml of water mixed with 1 tablespoon of flour for 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly under running water twice to remove impurities.
Bring water to a boil, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar, and blanch the hijiki for 10 seconds. Immediately transfer to cold water to cool and squeeze out excess moisture.
Chop the blanched hijiki finely, then mix with 2 pinches of salt and 1/2 tablespoon of sesame oil, tossing well to season.
Place 2 cups of washed rice into a pot, add 200ml of water and the seasoned hijiki on top.
Cook using the regular white rice setting. Once done, fluff the rice evenly and serve in a bowl.

Soak hijiki in flour water to remove impurities, then blanch in vinegar water for 10 seconds and cool in cold water.
Season chopped hijiki with salt and sesame oil.
Add the seasoned hijiki and water to washed rice and cook using the white rice setting.

Cooking tips

Soaking hijiki in flour water helps remove impurities due to its adsorption properties.
Adding a small amount of vinegar when blanching hijiki effectively eliminates its characteristic fishy odor.
Pre-seasoning the hijiki with salt and sesame oil before cooking allows the rich, nutty flavor to deeply infuse throughout the rice.
