Preparation
Step 1
Rinse the arame well in a fine sieve, then place it in a generously sized bowl. Fill the bowl with cool water and let it soak for 5 to 10 minutes, until nicely pliable. Drain the arame in the sieve, and gently squeeze out any excess water. Transfer the arame back to your empty bowl, which we will use as a mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add the cabbage, bell pepper, green onion, and cilantro. Whisk the dressing once more, and pour it all over the salad. Gently toss until the salad is evenly coated in the dressing.
Step 3
When it’s time to serve, divide the seaweed into bowls and top with diced avocado. The salad will keep well in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days (add the avocado just before serving).

Chef's notes
If you’re relatively new to seaweed, this salad offers a great introduction.
Reserve the avocado until just before serving since it browns over time.
The recipe keeps well in the refrigerator for up to four days.
