Step:
Cut OR tear Lettuce into bite-size pieces, place in a large bowl, add 1 pinch Salt and massage, then set aside for 10 minutes. Squeeze to remove liquid. This process is unnecessary if you use common lettuce.
In a large bowl, combine White Miso, Sugar, Rice Vinegar and Mustard until smooth. Add Lettuce and mix well, or massage well with your hand. Add Fish OR additional ingredient of your choice, and combine.
Below is a same salad, but made with Iceberg Lettuce and Mussels cooked in Sake (Rice Wine).
Ingredients
120 g Red / Green Leaf Lettuce *OR other lettuce of your choice
120 g Fish, Seafood OR Surimi Products, e.g. Chikuwa (Fish Sausage) or Kamaboko (Fish Cake)
*Note: Today I used 1 can (120g) Mackerel in brine
<Miso Dressing>
1 tablespoon White Miso *alter the amount depending on the saltiness
1/2 tablespoon Sugar
1/2 tablespoon Rice Vinegar
1/4 teaspoon Mustard *Japanese Mustard if possible
