Wakame Tuna Cucumber Salad – Hiroko’s Recipes


If you are interested in eating more sea vegetables, Dried Wakame is probably the easiest to find. Most Asian grocery stores sell them. I usually buy Dried Wakame that are already cut into small pieces, but not too small. They can be used for many dishes.
