Ingredients:
- Tosakanori (before soaking/after soaking): 30g/9g

How to:
-
Salted Tosakanori seaweed should be rinsed twice with water to remove salt. After that, soaked in water for about 3 minutes to remove the excess salt.
-
For Dried Tosakanori seaweed, soak it in water for 4 minutes to rehydrate.
- ※ When soaking in saltwater, make sure to thoroughly rinse off any debris or foreign objects that may have gotten inside. If there are any discolored parts, it's best to remove them.
-
Prep and Cook Ingredients: Cut all your ingredients into bite-sized pieces. Follow the instructions on the rice noodle package for stir-frying. Add the pea shoots last, covering the pan to steam them briefly while keeping their crunchy texture.

Add Tosakanori: Once your noodles are cooked, turn off the heat and mix in the prepared Tosakanori. Serve immediately for a delicious twist on your usual stir-fried noodles.
Tosakanori's delicate shape, vibrant color, and unique texture adds a beautiful and tasty touch to any dish.
