Papurika to hijiki no marine / marinated sweet pepper and hijiki seaweed
Juicy, cheerful sweet pepper is quickly microwaved and marinated with boiled hijiki. The combination of apple cider vinegar and rice vinegar is fruity and mild, making it a good match for non-Japanese meals, too. A great addition as an appetizer or as part of a salad or bento.

<Notes>
- If shoyukoji is not at hand, use soy sauce (1/2-2/3 tsp or so) and a tiny amount of sweetener of your choice, such as mirin, sugar, honey or maple syrup.
- This tastes better after marinating for several hours. When marinating overnight, the taste becomes very well blended. It starts to taste a bit strong from Day 3. If you're making this to serve a few days later and want to keep the dish on the mild end, reduce the amount of shoyukoji by 1/4-1/2 tsp and apple and rice vinegar by 1/4 tsp each.
- The nutrition figures above are when marinade is also consumed. Since some marinade will not be consumed, a more realistic sodium figure is around 60mg for 1/4 of the recipe amount.
- While hijiki is rehydrated after soaking for 10-15 minutes, as a precaution soaking for at least 30 minutes is recommended to reduce its arsenic content. The arsenic content in hijiki is said to be too minor to harm health with average consumption among Japanese.
