Ingredients
  

  • 1 pack bean sprouts
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 4 tsp sesame oil

Method
 

  1. Place bean sprouts into a mixing bowl or storage container.
  2. Add 2 tbsp of water to the bean sprouts and cover with plastic wrap.
  3. Microwave for ~5 minutes. (I'm using a 1000 watt microwave and the bean sprouts weren't frozen. You may have to adjust the heating time based on your microwave and bean sprouts)
  4. Add the sesame oil, salt, and dashi to the bean sprouts and mix.
