Try this ASIAN CUCUMBER SALAD recipe, or contribute your own.
Suggest a better descriptionUsing the tines of a fork, score the cucumbers lengthwise- this will help the dressing cling to the cucumber. (Feel free to skip if in a hurry.)
Slice the cucumbers thinly. Place in a bowl and toss with the salt to help them release water. Let this stand while you gather the remaining ingredients.
Strain the cucumbers, (do not rinse) place them in a large bowl and add the scallions, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup, optional red chili paste and toasted sesame seeds. Mix to combine.
Taste and adjust salt to your liking. Add more chili paste if you like.
Refrigerate until ready to serve. This is best served the same day but will keep up to 3 days.
Optional Additions: (see variations in post body)
fish sauce, Lime juice, crushed roasted peanuts, Gochujang, cilantro or Thai Basil, red onions, peanut chili crunch, radishes
