This is typical accompaniment with any fried fish or meat in Philippines . . . .in our house from when I was a little girl in the 50's till now (75 years old now) .
Really liked your receipe n demo ! I am from India. When giving any receipe , pl suggest alternative spices too as some May not be available in some parts of the world.
I grew up on this type of salad=side dish in America. We used celery seed instead of sesame seeds. Since we always had a garden, we added diced red tomatoes and whatever else we had a toast for.
Thank you Hati Lee. She taugh me so much. Never professionally trained, she was the cook at a number of resturants in the town where I grew up. She passed 9 years ago but lives on in my food :)
In England, we just add vinegar and pepper and refrigerate for 30 mins, we also do it with sliced onion. Make a great quick pickled cucumber and pickled onion. Fish and Chip shops leave a bowl on side of the counter to sprinkle on your F&Cs.
In Japan, this dish is categorized as Su-no-mono (酢の物), the vinegared dish, one of the side dishes, not a salad. As we always eat the plain steamed rice with it, the strong acidic taste won't be so overwhelming. It means to be refreshing.
Atsuko. Thank you for the information. My children take Japanese is school and they will love this. You are correct, this is a side dish but for youtube purposes I had to name it a "salad" or it would never be found.
@@KitchenDadsCooking yes, I understand and it can be a kind of salad in global language, with th vegetables and all. (By the way, I am happy to hear your children's association with our language. I hope they like the other Japanese dishes, too.)
@@atsukorichards1675 3 years of middle school Japanese with an amazing Sensei who makes it really fun. They like tempura, yakitori, ramen, and of course mochi. Looking forward to going to the large "Japan Fest" coming up soon near our city.
Monique - great question as I am going to film that salad soon. With a Thai cucumber salad it contains fish sauce and usually some type of "spicy" pepper like Thai chiles. Little more umami flavor with the spicy kick. Love both salads. Sub and you'll be notified when that video comes out. Thanks for the question!
In Malaysia also has this kind of dishes. We call it jelatah. Other than cucumber, we add thin-sliced onions with or without sliced pineapple. For those who likes spicy, they add sliced bird eye chilli.
@@KitchenDadsCooking but we haved our local vinegar is it do good ,we liked our own vinegar, and apple cider is too sour , and our vinegar is all I haved , thank you for you patient , God bless and keep safe.
Don't disagree with nutrition in the seeds but sometimes we are working toward a visual look also. Check out my other cucumber recipes where we keep the seeds in. Is tasty, there is 1/4 cup of rice wine vinegar. Thanks for watching!!
Looks like a great side dish. We had a bumper crop of cukers this year but I'll keep this vid for next year..thanks for the video and awesome Mandolin from your mom..

Jpnz cucumber salad...w/ English cukes? I use 6 Jpnz cukes for this salad. Less water & seeds. Add salt to sliced cukes to release h²o. Toss. Wait 15-20 min. Squeeze slices to drain more h²o. Add rehydrated dried seaweed (Wakame, sliced variety). Again, squeeze out the h²o b4 adding to the cukes. Next add slivers of crab(or imitation) meat. Slivered ginger root is optional here but adds another dimension. Use the sesame seeds but don't toast them. Makes the salad look "dirty". Instead add 1/4 tsp of toasted sesame oil to 3/4 cup Jpnz rice wine vinegar & 3/4 cup sugar. Make this dish & refrigerate the night b4 to let ingredients meld. Not so simple recipe but I always get nice reviews whenever I make this. Especially appreciated during the summer. Refreshing to say the least. Will keep till u eat it up. A week?? The vinegrette is a preservative.
I use English cukes if I cannot find the Jpnz variety. My mom used regular cukes & added head lettuce if she didn't have enough cukes. Pickling cukes would work also. I stay away from the Persian variety, too much h²o. That's all folks. Give it a try...a splendid time is guaranteed 4 all. (Sorry John & Paul)
actually Vic. The cutting area is not sharp enough to cut yourself unless you push extremely hard. More dull than a knife so if someone can handle a knife, they can handle this. Oh, by the way, it still is avaiable. HA!
@@vichillebrand9990 We must be talking about different devices or you might have really strong hands! Finger salad is never good :( Hope you are all healed!
I made this, very good. I added a half tsp of sesame oil and some black pepper. I never eat anything savory without black pepper and I notice that you seldom use any.
Yes, they are called "seedless" but in reality they still have underdeveloped seeds in the softer part in the middle. I know because I cut them out every day for one of my kids who 'hates seeds" no matter what form they are in.
Thanks I made this and it was really good. But I found it too acidic. I later put some water and apples in it and that helped. Any thoughts on how to make it less acidic.
As the recipe is, it is a bit acidic. Great idea on the water and apples. Could add a little water and possibly some more sweetner of your choice. Might try a little honey and additional water.
I just love cucumber salads
They are best!
Love this.
😊
Thank you looks great, nice and simple
Glad you like it!

Thank you Hati Lee. She taugh me so much. Never professionally trained, she was the cook at a number of resturants in the town where I grew up. She passed 9 years ago but lives on in my food :)

Yum! I love pickled anything!
Yup, no fuss!
Just seasoned rice wine vinegar and pepper added to the sliced cucumbers , refrigerate 1/2 hour before meal.
I don't like vinegar taste, so I changed it with lime/lemon juice. Taste so fresh, especially after chill in the fridge.
Crunchy, cold cucumbers are the best!
Sending full my supports😍
Thank you!
So impressed that your mandoline is so well made. Could you post the product’s manufacturer? Would love to track one down.
Let me work on that Julie

@@KitchenDadsCooking true
I made this kind of salad... With carrots... And it is so yummy
Do you know what is the difference between this and the Thai cucumber side dish? I know it has red pepper flakes instead of the seeds.

Is it okay to put oil? sesami oil or olive oil?
Yes, that would be fine.
Thanks for sharing this recipe 🌈
❤️ To eat cucumber 🥒
🙂
👍Tasty
I always make my own cucumber salad with any kind dressings and I really love it. sometimes that is my lunch or my dinner.
Love that!
I think I will really loved it , but if I can't find rice vinegar , any option please ! Thanks .
Sure. You can use apple cider, champagne or white wine vinegar.
@@KitchenDadsCooking but we haved our local vinegar is it do good ,we liked our own vinegar, and apple cider is too sour , and our vinegar is all I haved , thank you for you patient , God bless and keep safe.
@@rizalinajacob4696 Yes, your local vinegar should be good! Enjoy!
@@KitchenDadsCooking thank you so much.
Looks delicious!
It is!
A few drops of sesame seed oil and chili flakes will add to the oriental taste!
Great suggestions. Certainly will enhace the flavor profile.
I totally agree. Thank you for a lovely recipe.
I will add a little bit of sesame oil 😋.
Sounds great!
Love it! Add a little sesame oil
Or peanut oil.
and red pepper flakes.
Seeds are where all the nutrition is stored. I don't remove them from anything. This looks tasty :) Where's the Vinagar?
Don't disagree with nutrition in the seeds but sometimes we are working toward a visual look also. Check out my other cucumber recipes where we keep the seeds in. Is tasty, there is 1/4 cup of rice wine vinegar. Thanks for watching!!
Please show Japanese style chicken salad
Great suggestion. I'll put that on my list to film
I have the same mandolin. It was my mom's, too. I would arm-wrestle anyone who tried to take it away from me.
It is a Feemster slicer. My mom has one and so do I. Legend has it they were invented by pioneering women out of Bowie knives.
Yes. Love my Feemster. Interesting on the legend!
Looks like a great side dish. We had a bumper crop of cukers this year but I'll keep this vid for next year..thanks for the video and awesome Mandolin from your mom..
this salad is good for any fried dishes. fish . chicken or pork. hard to find sesame seeds.. instead i put 2_ tble spoon of sesame oil..
Sounds great! Thanks for sharing.
Good to hear that you remember your mom.
She's with me everyday!

thanks. simple appetizer. watching from the philippines. i love cucumbers. its good for the health
Thanks for watching!!! I love cucumbers also!
Thank you, for this easy and simple recipe. I will try this soon
Just like Filipino cucumber salad ,the difference is we add black pepper.
I could see where black pepper would add to the flavor profile.
A little sesame oil would give it another flavor layer.
Yes it would
I will definitely try this dish ...thank you.
Awesome!
great but for extra kick add some toasted sesame oil and seasoned rice vinegar!
Always tell people to make recipes their own! Great suggestion.
Put viniger,sugar,water,garlic, Paprika, a Hungarian dish
Thanks for sharing
I think it's nice with a bit of sesame oil.
Yes.
Toasted sesame seeds and rice wine vinegar make it Japanese?
No, the fact that I call it Japanese, makes it Japanese 😝

Easy to clean mandolin, easy to cut the tips of your finger off too! That’s why that style is not available any longer. Unsafe. Ha !
actually Vic. The cutting area is not sharp enough to cut yourself unless you push extremely hard. More dull than a knife so if someone can handle a knife, they can handle this. Oh, by the way, it still is avaiable. HA!
@@KitchenDadsCooking speaking from experience used one without the safety guard and took some finger into the salad. Lol. Was a sharp one…
@@vichillebrand9990 We must be talking about different devices or you might have really strong hands! Finger salad is never good :( Hope you are all healed!
Ap"peal"ling....sneaky use of a pun there!
Nice Catch!
No salt for me and sugar too
Great but didn't he forget the fine sliced onion ??!!
No onions in this version. Maybe in yours. I love onions, I should try next time.
I giapponesi aggiungono anche la salsa di soia🙂
So simple healthy and easy prep! Thanks for sharinh
Thank you!
I made this, very good. I added a half tsp of sesame oil and some black pepper. I never eat anything savory without black pepper and I notice that you seldom use any.
Actually I love black pepper. Like you, put it in most everything, especially fresh ground.
Same as Pilipino cucumber salad
Cool!
OMG! Do we really care about how we peel a cucumber or slice it? My belly don't have eyes!
1. Yes we do. 2. My belly don't have eyes? So glad it doesn't. That would be really freeky.
Technically the more appealing the food is the more u wanna eat it
Wow very delicious and also healthy benefits our body thank you for sharing this video keep it up vlogging see u
Thank you! Important to eat healthy foods. 😀 Watch for more videos coming your way.
English cucumbers are seedless.
Yes, they are called "seedless" but in reality they still have underdeveloped seeds in the softer part in the middle. I know because I cut them out every day for one of my kids who 'hates seeds" no matter what form they are in.
I make line’s with a fork…
good skill to have
What else can I use if I do not want to use alcohol?
It won't quite be the same but regular white vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
Thanks for the simple easyto make andutritious cucumber salad. Im your new subscriber'
Thanks and welcome
Before peeling and cutting, please include safest way to wash cucumber so pesticide is removed thoroughly! Thank you
Wash with a baking soda and water mix, scrub lightly.
Thanks for sharing a lovely light cucumber salad, transforming the humble cucumber slice into a lovely salad 😍yummy
Exactly!
simple and great. maybe consider describing toasting sesame seeds til lightly or medium browned.
Great suggestion!
In India we have something better!! It's called Kachumbar!!!!
Better is a subjective term but you do have my interest. Going to check out Kachumbar recipes now! :)
Only problem, no rice vinegar 😕
Bummer. Maybe try apple cider vinegar.
I love cucumber salad. I made one the other day and posted a video on my RUclips recently. I'll try your recipe later
My favorite cucumber
It was ok
Where did you buy the cucumber cutter?
My mom had this for 50 years and I got it from her.
I have that same mandolin that my mom used. First time I’ve ever seen another like it.
My favorite tool. Every kitchen should have one
oi ..and I have leftover toasted sesame and was wondering what to do and this literally popped in my timeline! can't wait to try this. thanks!
Perfect timing! Hope you enjoy!
Wow... that's nice tips
@@TheLuisa58 Thank you!
I will try also, see japanese taste.
Hope you enjoy
Lost me. I luv my cucumber seeds
If you want to keep them in, keep them in. For this version, we want the look without the seeds.
Holy crap I have and use a slicer exactly like that!
It's the best!
Thank you for sharing your video. I am your new subscriber. 😀
Me too🤭
Welcome!
this could be 3 minute video
Yes, it could. Here is how to make it 3 minutes. Use the speed control at 1.5 or 2.0x that should make it about 3 minutes! :)
Thanks I made this and it was really good. But I found it too acidic. I later put some water and apples in it and that helped. Any thoughts on how to make it less acidic.

Thanks. I made it again with 1/8 cup of rice wine vinegar and the same with water. It turned out perfect. It didn’t seem acidic at all.
@@swahilijs Awesome!
Add baking soda
This was also a very popular traditional salad in the Netherlands (without the sesame seeds).
Interesting.
One large English cucumber
What was the last.item you put in.
Please.write the ingredients

I want to plant that kind of cucumber.
Do it! They are great.
