Preparation
Step 1
Make the furikake (if using): Toast the nori over a gas burner by waving the sheet above the burner until it’s darkened and crispy. Cut into small pieces. Place the toasted nori in a food processor with the sesame seeds, salt, and sugar. Pulse until everything is well chopped up.
Step 2
Make the dressing: In a small bowl combine the tamari, garlic, lime juice, rice vinegar, sugar, and sesame oil.
Step 3
Toss the watermelon with the scallions and a bit of the dressing. Assemble bowls with the watermelon, cucumber, macadamia nuts, pickled ginger, jalapeño, avocado, and microgreens, if using. Pour on more dressing (as much as you like) and gently toss. Serve with furikake sprinkled on top.

Chef's notes
You can serve this in individual bowls, as pictured, or toss everything together in one large bowl.
Use leftover furikake topping on rice bowls with grilled or roasted vegetables.
