  • 6 tablespoons of hiziki
  • 2/3 cups of unfiltered apple juice
  • 2 tablespoons of shoyu
  • 1/3 cup of water
  • 2 teaspoons of sesame oil
  • 1 3/4 cups of diced onion
  • 1 tablespoon of minced garlic
  • 1 small piece of ginger root, peeled

Add the onion and then garlic; add sea salt and saute for 5 minutes. Add hiziki and soaking liquid, cover and cook 10 minutes. Grate ginger and add it to the skillet along with the lemon juice. Cook the mixture covered for 10 minutes. Uncover and cook over medium heat until liquid is absorbed. Allow hiziki mixture to cool slightly and pulse in food processor for a few seconds.

    Though I followed the cornmeal blini recipe closely, I didn't have all the ingredients for the caviar. Instead, I served the blinis with some jullenned carrots and hiziki which I sauteed in sesame oil, soy sauce, liquid aminos and topped with toasted sesame seeds. I like to fit hiziki into my cooking every possible chance I have-- it is a tasty and highly nutritious food.
