25 minutes
Spinach and hijiki salad is a harmonious blend of fresh greens and seaweed, giving the dish a rich flavor with a light nutty note. Hijiki, a traditional Japanese ingredient, is known for its rich mineral content and unique ocean aroma that beautifully complements the freshness of spinach and the spiciness of chives. The salad is enriched with the citrus brightness of lime, the warmth of cumin, and the deep flavor of soy sauce. This light and healthy snack is perfect for those who appreciate a balance of flavors and nutrients, while the addition of sprouts and radicchio makes it even more textured and interesting. Such a salad can be served as a standalone dish or as an accompaniment to a main meal, adding freshness and sophistication.
