Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Jellyfish

    Rinse the fresh jellyfish under cold running water to remove any impurities. Soak in a bowl of salted water for about 30 minutes, then drain and pat dry.

    Wash the cucumber thoroughly. Slice it thinly into rounds or half-moons according to your preference.

Mixing the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the prepared jellyfish and sliced cucumbers.

    Add Dressings

    In another bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, salt, and chili oil. Pour this dressing over the jellyfish and cucumbers.

  3. 5

    Toss the Salad

    Gently toss the ingredients together until all the jellyfish and cucumbers are well coated with the dressing.

Garnishing and Serving

    Add Fresh Herbs

  2. 7
