- Minutes to Prepare:
- Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
1 large or 2 small cucumbers -- or 4 baby cucumbers, sold at Costco, or 3 persian cucumbers, sold at Trader Joe's. Just plain cucumbers work fine also.2 tbsp rice Vinegar (unsweetened) -- if you ever see "Eden Ume Plum Vinegar," try it! Delicious on these cucumbers, but use less and watch out for the sodium.1 tsp toasted sesame oil1 tsp black sesame seeds (optional)
wash and slice cucumbers anyway you like them -- round, sticks, whatever. only the largest toughest cukes will need to be peeled. usually this is good with the peel on.
sprinkle on the vinegar and oil to taste -- generous with the rice vinegar, easy on the sesame oil.
stir well. let sit for a few minutes, stirring occasionally. if it tastes too bland after 5 minutes or so, add a little more vinegar. maybe even a dash of salt.
optionally sprinkle with black sesame seeds, mostly just cuz they look so good.
