    After a couple of hours of research (I really want some seaweed salad, ok?) I've learned of these terms regarding types of seaweed from Japan. I hope they help someone so they don't have to research as much. I put a * next to ones that are synonyms.
    Fueru Wakame - shredded, leafy
    for leafy salads & miso; comes as crumbly, shriveled leaves
    *Kuki Wakame - stems
    for stringy salads; apparently "kuki" means "stem"
    *Hiyashi Wakame - bright stems
    for stringy salads; I think this is a higher grade of kuki wakame
    *Mekabu - Wakame stems
    for stringy salads; apparently also synonymous with kuki
    Hijiki - dark
    for dark stringy salads; like kuki wakame but darker and firmer
    Nori - sheets
    for maki sushi, tamago nigiri, hand rolls, etc. obviously
    kombu - thick sheets
    for making dashi & rice seasoning; usually not eaten

      thank you so much. i am rehydrating my wakame right now and was baffled as to why it didn't look bright green and stringy like it does in restaurants. the package just says "wakame" but it's clear to me now that it is the leafy type. i need to screenshot your reply for future purchases.

    Beautiful salad. Thank you for posting. I especially love how you get to the point and don't bore us with unnecessary drivel. Clear, concise, and excellent. I would love to see the packaging of the seaweed however as it's difficult to find (1) and my Asian grocery store is so authentic they do not speak English (2) and it's difficult to communicate. A picture would be very helpful. But otherwise thank you for a great post.

    I *LOVE* seaweed salad, and for years I've been trying to figure out how to make it at home, so THANK YOU! But the seaweed salad I find in most Japanese restaurants seems to have two or three types of seaweed, and I don't know what the others are (although I suspect one of them may be agar-agar that is *not* soaked). Also, there are usually hot pepper flakes in it, but no garlic (which is good, because I'm violently allergic to garlic!). The seaweed is all cut into slivers, and so is the cucumber, which is underneath the seaweed, not mixed in.
    I must go to the Asian grocery, and/or Whole Foods, tomorrow, and buy some seaweed!

    • @fishesdeep
      @fishesdeep 6 років тому

      I have tried to find out the ingredients for the restaurant/frozen salad variety featured at the start of the video. Like you say, there seems to be a variety of seaweeds. There is also a crunchy element and it is bright green, which is unlike the dried/rehydrated Wakame. Chef Davy Devaux, do you know the ingredients in the restaurant salad? I understand it may be types of fresh seaweed that is unavailable in the US or UK. I would just love to know the ingredients and the process.

    When I make a wakame salad I always use the water for making dashi. I figure that lots of the nutrients have gone into the water. What do you think? (I make a basic dashi with konbu where they always say not to boil the konbu so I thought that adding the wakame water would give a boost to the umami too... after that I add the katsuobushi flakes)

    • @CortezEspartaco2
      @CortezEspartaco2 6 років тому +3

      Pamela J Levene Great idea. I'll try this next time I make miso soup. It does seem like a waste to throw out the excess water, with all the nutrients it's absorbed.

    • @MinttMeringue
      @MinttMeringue 5 років тому +2

      Makes sense, yeah. When I make miso soup/other soups I always add in my fueru wakame dry so I dont need to throw out the water. I had the same thought process as I also make dashi with kombu.
