Salad with chuka, cucumber and bell pepper in teriyaki sauce - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute chuka seaweed with other edible seaweeds like wakame or nori. Note that the texture and saltiness may vary, so adjust seasoning accordingly.
Store the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The vegetables may soften slightly, but it will still be safe to eat.
Yes, this recipe is vegan as long as the teriyaki sauce used doesn't contain any animal-derived ingredients like fish sauce or honey. Always check your sauce's ingredient list.
Yes, you can prepare the components up to a day in advance, but store the dressing separately and combine just before serving to maintain the best texture.
A mixture of soy sauce, a little sugar or honey, and a splash of rice vinegar can mimic teriyaki's sweet-savory profile. Adjust to taste.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce to the teriyaki sauce before dressing. Sriracha also works well for a quick kick.
Absolutely! Grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu cubes (baked or pan-fried) are excellent additions. Add them cooled to the salad just before serving.
