Start by preparing the vegetables. Thinly slice the watermelon radish and cucumber using a mandoline or a sharp knife for uniform slices. Use a peeler to peel the carrot into thin ribbons.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and then scoop out the avocado flesh. Slice it into thin pieces.
Cut the seaweed sheets into thin strips or small squares, suitable for a salad topping.
Prepare the dressing by combining soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, agave syrup, and wasabi paste in a small bowl. Whisk together until well mixed.
Assemble the salad by placing mixed salad greens in a large serving bowl or platter.
On top of the greens, arrange the sliced watermelon radish, cucumber, carrot ribbons, sliced avocado, and seaweed strips.
Add small mounds of pickled ginger evenly across the salad for bursts of flavor.
Drizzle the dressing over the entire salad or serve it on the side as preferred.
Finish by sprinkling toasted sesame seeds over the top for a nutty crunch.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
