Crunchy salad with sesame dressing
Goma dare is the creamy roasted sesame sauce of Japanese restaurants, the one you dip shabu-shabu in or that comes over the cabbage salad next to katsu. It comes ready in the bottle, your only job is cutting vegetables.
Instructions
-
Cut the vegetables fine
Shred the cabbage as thin as you can, cut the cucumber into ribbons and the carrot into julienne. The finer the cut, the closer to the Japanese restaurant salad.
-
Wake up the cabbage
Massage the cabbage 30 seconds with a pinch of salt and a few drops of lemon. It softens just enough and stays crunchy.
-
Dress with goma dare
Pour over the goma dare and toss well. The sauce comes ready-made, creamy, sweetish and full of toasted sesame, it needs nothing else.
-
Sesame and serve
Sprinkle the sesame mix on top. Goes with everything: katsu, salmon, gyoza, barbecue, or as a light lunch with edamame.
Good to know
The same sauce is a great dip for gyoza and raw vegetables, a dressing for cold soba or udon noodles, and a shabu-shabu sauce. Refrigerate the bottle after opening.
