Rujak bulung is a unique and traditional Balinese salad made with seaweed ("bulung" in Balinese). This salad is a vibrant mix of fresh seaweed, usually from the species Gracilaria or Eucheuma, that is thinly sliced and served with a dressing made from a blend of savory, sweet, and spicy flavors. The dressing for rujak bulung typically includes fish sauce or shrimp paste (to add depth and umami), and a variety of spices like chili peppers and salt. Sometimes, it also includes ground peanuts for an added crunch and nuttiness. The result is a dish that perfectly balances the freshness of the seaweed with the richness of the dressing, creating a taste that is simultaneously sweet, spicy, sour, and salty. Rujak bulung is not only appreciated for its delightful taste but also for its health benefits, as seaweed is known to be rich in minerals, vitamins, and fiber.
