Wow, it's been a real long time since my last post. I thought I get back on and update the old blog for fun. This was a simple cucumber salad I made to go with the chicken katsu dinner I made.
I had a nice cucumber wanting me to do something with it so this was the perfect time. I sliced the cucumber with my trusty nakiri, but you could also do it with a mandolin to get nice thin slices. Place the sliced cucumbers in a bowl and salt to draw out the liquid, pat dry and set aside.
I also added slivers of sweet Vidalia onions and along some sliced scallions and ginger.
In a separate bowl I mixed the wet ingredients along with the sugar. You can adjust the ingredients to taste, it's not that critical. Add the sliced cucumbers and toss... Viola!
Ingredients
One English Cucumber
1 Tbs Sugar
2 Tbs Rice wine vinegar
1 Tbs Sesame Oil
1 Tbs Soy sauce
2 Tbs Mirin
