Sesame shrimp rice salad is a delightful dish bursting with a harmonious blend of flavors and textures. Its foundation is fluffy and fragrant rice, which serves as a neutral backdrop for the vibrant ingredients that dance upon it. Tender shrimp, with their delicate briny notes, take center stage, while crisp bell peppers and succulent snow peas add a pop of color and a delightful crunch. The salad is further enriched with the addition of chopped red onion, which imparts a subtle sharpness, and toasted sesame seeds, lending a nutty aroma and a satisfying textural contrast. A tangy dressing made with toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, soy sauce, and ginger finishes the dish, bringing all the flavors together in a symphony of sweet, sour, and savory sensations.

SPICY SESAME SHRIMP & NOODLE SALAD



Spicy Sesame Shrimp & Noodle Salad image

One of our favorite Korean dishes has always been a Korean Cold Sesame Noodles that my Mom made for us. It was supposed to be served at room temperature, but I like it warm. The shrimp-noodle salad recipe was a result of memories of my Mom's Korean background, and my love of fresh vegetables, packed full of flavor. The gochujang (hot chili paste) is a more savory kind of heat, that really blends beautifully with sesame, soy sauce and garlic. -Karen Bowlden, Boise, Idaho

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and texture to your salad.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings. There are many different types of dressings that can be used on a sesame shrimp rice salad. Some popular choices include a simple vinaigrette, a creamy sesame dressing, or a Thai peanut dressing.
