Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. One of Michelle’s breakfast favorites, according to sources, is cold somen salad. It’s a local staple at college graduation parties and family get togethers in Hawaii’s Asian American community. While it seems light, the noodles themselves are filling.
So how does one who doesn’t watch the Food Network make cold somen salad? Here’s a recepie from the HECO, the Hawaiian Electric Company.
Cold Somen Salad
Ingredients:
- 1 9-ounce package somen noodles
- 1 head iceberg lettuce, slivered
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 carrot, slivered
- 1/2 block (7-ounce size) kamaboko (Japanese steamed fish cake), diced
- 1/2 package (6-ounce size) tempura kamaboko (Japanese fried fish cake), diced
- 1/2 pound char siu, minced
- 1/2 cup minced green onion
Dressing:
- 1/4 cup salad oil
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame seed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Procedure:
Cook noodles according to package directions. Rinse under cold water and drain well. Place small bundles of noodles in a 13-by-9-inch serving dish. Top with vegetables, kamaboko, char siu and onion.
Combine dressing ingredients and pour over salad. Serves 10-12.
Pretty easy, huh? I think even a bachelor like myself could make it, but then again I’ve been known to set fires refilling the ice trays in the freezer.
Enjoy!
