Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cucumbers

    Wash the cucumbers thoroughly and slice them into thin rounds. You can peel them if you prefer a more tender texture.

  2. 2

    Make the Dressing

    In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and a pinch of salt until well combined.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the sliced cucumbers to the bowl with the dressing. Toss well to ensure the cucumbers are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Add Garnishes

    Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the cucumbers. Toss gently to mix.

  5. 5

    Chill and Serve

    Let the cucumbers marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
