step by step
Method
- Step 1
Slice the cucumbers
- Place a cucumber between two chopsticks.
- Slice one side diagonally and the other straight across, so the chopsticks stop the knife from cutting all the way through.
- Repeat with the remaining cucumbers.
- Step 2
Salt and drain
- Season the cucumbers generously with salt.
- Let them sit so they release excess water.
- Rinse the cucumbers thoroughly, then pat dry.
- Step 3
Make the dressing
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, sweetener of choice, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, green onion, sesame seeds, garlic and grated ginger.
- Mix together really well.
- Step 4
Combine and serve
- Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss to coat.
- Serve right away and enjoy.
