This recipe is very flexible, you can use any noodles or even spinach instead of seaweed, etc
Ingredients
1/4 cup cut dried wakame seaweed
8 ounces dried udon noodles (or spaghetti noodles)
1 tablespoon furikake or sesame seeds
10 ounces tuna in oil, drained
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons neutral oil (avocado, canola, etc)
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon mirin, rice wine, or sake (can be omitted)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon miso
Directions
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high, and set the wakame in a small bowl. Once the water comes to a boil, ladle or pour enough over the wakame to cover it by 2 inches; let the wakame soak for 10 minutes. Transfer the wakame to a colander to drain and cool; set aside.
2. While the wakame soaks, cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
3. Meanwhile, prepare the dressing: In a measuring cup or bowl, whisk to combine the sesame oil, canola oil, rice wine vinegar, mirin, soy sauce and miso; set aside.
4. In a small skillet, lightly toast the sesame seeds, if using, over medium-low heat until fragrant; set aside.
5. Drain the cooked noodles in the colander, then transfer to a wide, shallow serving bowl. Add the wakame and about 3/4 of the dressing, and toss to coat. Divide the noodles among 4 bowls. Top each portion with tuna, drizzle with the remaining dressing, then sprinkle with the scallions and furikake or sesame seeds. Serve hot, cold or anywhere in between.
