Description
A refreshing cucumber salad with a savory dressing.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large english cucumber (or 6 mini; total 3 cups sliced)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon chili crunch oil
- 2 drops sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic (can be omitted)
Instructions
- Start by washing the cucumber skins under cool running water with a vegetable brush; then pat dry with a paper towel.
- Slice the cucumbers into 1/4-inch thick slices and place them into a bowl. If using a whole English cucumber, cut them in half lengthwise before slicing so they’re bite-sized.
- In a separate small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, sesame oil and chili crunch oil. Whisk until smooth; then pour into the bowl with the cucumbers and mix well and add the salad to a serving bowl.
Notes
- This salad can be served immediately or chilled for a few minutes for added freshness.
- Adjust the soy sauce and honey to taste based on your preference for sweetness and saltiness.
