Yusheng or Chinese New Year Prosperity Salad

More and more Chinese wanna this dish shows up on their new year feast!




   Yusheng is getting more and more popular amongst Chinese staying 
in S.E. Asia, especially for Chinese-Singaporean and Chinese-Malaysian.
I believe there will be more variations coming along and including this recipe.
I will try to avoid using the carrot for this recipe as it is never a hot
tropical land's produce. Instead, I will use the nuts harvest from the 
temperate countries.

   Yusheng is actually a mixture of cold salad with sashimi, just before 
serving, the dressing is added and mixed by everyone using their chopsticks.
