Ingredients
▢1 pound English or Persian cucumbers (500 g)
▢1 teaspoon salt
▢2 teaspoons granulated white sugar
▢2 tablespoons rice vinegar
▢1 tablespoon light soy sauce (use tamari for gluten-free recipe)
▢1 teaspoon sesame oil
▢1 teaspoon minced garlic
▢½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
▢1 teaspoon chili oil
▢1 tablespoon sliced green onions
Instructions
Rinse cucumbers and pat them dry.
Cut them into ½-inch thick rounds.
Place the cucumber slices in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Toss to coat evenly, then sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the excess water to drain.
Rinse the cucumber slices under cold running water and pat the slices dry with paper towels or kitchen towels.
Whisk together the sugar, rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and red pepper flakes in a small mixing bowl until the sugar has dissolved.
Add the cucumber slices to a large mixing bowl and pour the dressing.
Toss to coat evenly with the dressing.
Let the cucumbers sit in the dressing in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days.
Stack the cucumber slices on a serving plate and drizzle with chili oil. Sprinkle chopped green onions on top and serve immediately.
Notes
You can substitute rice vinegar with red wine vinegar or distilled white vinegar for this recipe.
Add honey or brown sugar instead of sugar as a substitute.
Adjust red pepper flakes as per your spice level.
Din Tai Fung serves their cucumber salad with the peel still on, adding a nice crunch and texture to the salad. But you can always peel it if you prefer it that way.
Very tasty cucumber 🥒 salad 😋
