Notes

This dish shines when served in deep bowls, allowing the colorful ingredients to contrast beautifully. Consider serving with pickled cucumbers or a simple green salad. You could drizzle a bit more soy sauce for extra flavor or add sesame seeds for a crunchy finish. To keep leftovers fresh, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
