Wild Rice Nori Salad

This recipe is delicious by itself or served as a side along with some salmon or crab cakes.

1 cup mixed wild rice, cooked and allowed to cool
1 cup Nori flakes, toasted
1 cup cilantro, chopped
2 Tb. onion, minced and sauteed
1 Tb. honey
2 Tb. soy sauce or Tamari
1 tsp. toasted sesame oil
1 tsp. fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 Tb. chopped almonds
1 tsp. fresh lemon juice

Mix cooked rice with onion, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and almonds.
Stir in toasted Nori and chopped cilantro. Add lemon juice. Chill for 2 hours or can be served at room temperature.

*To toast Nori, use a 300 degree oven for a few minutes. When ready, it will crumble.
*Another option is to cut with herb scissors and mix with rice while still hot off the heat.
