Nutritional values

Japanese cuisine is considered particularly healthy, and this salad is no exception. One portion supplies the body with almost half of the daily requirement of many important minerals and trace elements.

If you want to add more vitamin A to your plate, cook a handful of carrot sticks for 10 minutes with the snow peas.
