Seaweed Salad with Onion and Tomato

Looks delicious, isn't it? This premium seaweed salad consists of fresh seaweeds (not processed into laver - used for making sushi) mixed with sweet oil (probably sesame oil), dried chili flakes, and sesame seeds. I have added some onion and tomato slices as healthy garnishes.  I've had this seaweed salad for lunch as an appetizer and as side dish for tuyo (dried fish) and rice. If tuyo is not available, I would substitute it with salted duck eggs (itlog na maalat). from Mr. Duck (Itlog Ni Kuya). The salted duck eggs and seaweed salad go well with my tastebuds because of their salty-sweet taste combination.

To buy premium seaweed salad, you will find it on the Cold Storage Seafood section of your local supermarket in the Philippines. Here's how the package look like:

The premium seaweed in a package may be costly for an average grocery shopper (from Php100 and up) but that explains how delicious the salad is.
