Best Bean Sprout Salad With Soy Sauce Dressing Recipes

BEAN SPROUT SALAD

Steps:

• [Optional] Remove the brown part and stringy root part. I recommend doing this extra step when you eat raw bean sprouts or when they are seasoned with light flavor sauce. You can taste the clean bean sprouts.
• Rinse the bean sprouts under cold water and drain well.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, add bean sprouts to cook for 1 to 1.5 minutes.
• Drain into a colander and set aside for 5 minutes as you don't want to dilute the sauce with remaining water.
• Meanwhile, cut the green onion/scallion into small pieces. Grind the sesame seeds in a mortar and pestle. Grate the garlic, or use a garlic press to crush the garlic.
• In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients for the seasonings and mix well. It might look little but it's more than enough.
• Add the bean sprout and green onion/scallion in the bowl and combine all together. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

DUA GIA (PICKLED BEAN SPROUT SALAD)

Steps:

• To make the brine, combine the sugar, salt, vinegar and 1 cup water in a large saucepan and warm over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar and salt dissolve. Remove from the heat and completely cool.
• At least 40 minutes and up to 2 hours before serving, add the bean sprouts, carrot and scallions to the brine. Use your fingers to toss the vegetables. Set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes, turning the vegetables 2 or 3 times to expose them evenly to the brine. At first, the vegetables won't be covered by the brine, but then they will shrink. They're ready when they're almost covered with brine and taste pleasantly tangy and are a mix of crunchy and soft. If needed, let them sit for 10 minutes longer.
• Drain the vegetables and pile them high on a plate. Serve at room temperature within 2 hours to enjoy them at their peak.
