This spicy cucumber salad is one of my favorite ways to prepare cukes. Very different from the traditional way.
Ingredients
- 3 large cucumbers – sliced lengthwise, seeds scooped out, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick half rounds
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- 1 ½ teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon hot chili oil
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Place cucumbers into a colander and sprinkle with salt. Allow to drain for at least 30 minutes. Shake off excess liquid but do not rinse cucumbers.
Step 2
Whisk together soy sauce, sugar, garlic, rice vinegar, sesame oil, chili oil, and red pepper flakes in a salad bowl.
Step 3
Add cucumbers to soy sauce mixture; stir to coat evenly. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before serving.
