  2. 2 Soak sea grapes in ice water for 3 minutes to make the grapes plump and crispy.
  3. 3 Remove from the pot and place in a colander, let drain naturally for about 5 minutes, do not wring.
  4. 4 Arrange the sea grapes in a high mound on a chilled plate.
  5. 5 Serve with a small bowl of ponzu sauce and grated ginger; dip lightly in the sauce just before eating to prevent the seeds from collapsing.
