Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Cucumbers

Wash the cucumbers and slice them thinly. Place them in a bowl.

2

Season the Cucumbers

Sprinkle the salt over the cucumbers and toss them gently. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

3

Make the Dressing

In a separate bowl, mix together the rice vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and minced garlic until the sugar is dissolved.

4

Combine Salad

Drain any excess liquid from the cucumbers, then pour the dressing over them. Toss gently to combine.

5

Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top. Serve immediately or refrigerate for a chilled option.
