Black Rice And Soy Salad Recipes

BLACK RICE SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Place black rice, salt, and water in a medium sized saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a boil and cook until the rice is tender, 20-25 minutes. Drain and let it cool.
• Make the salad dressing by whisking together rice vinegar, shallot, honey, chili garlic sauce, garlic, and ginger. While still whisking, drizzle in the olive oil and sesame oil until fully combined.
• To assemble the salad, place now-cooled black rice, sugar snap peas (or shelled edamame), radishes, bell pepper, and cilantro in a large salad bowl. Drizzle it with the dressing and give it a gentle toss.
• Give it a taste for seasoning and add in if necessary. Serve.

BLACK RICE AND SOY SALAD W/ASIAN DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, combine the rice, diced bell pepper, walnut pieces and edamame. 2. Slice the tofu about 1/2 inch thick, and blot with paper towels. Cut into 1/2-inch dice, and toss with the soy sauce. Add to the rice along with the chives and cilantro. 3. Just before serving, toss with the vinaigrette. Yield: Serves six. Advance preparation: The rice will keep in the refrigerator for three or four days, and it freezes well. The salad can be assembled several hours before serving, but don't toss the tofu with the soy sauce until you're ready to serve it. If you want the rice to be extra flavorful, toss it with the dressing and marinate for a few hours. You can even freeze it in the dressing.
