Notes
- *1 The photograph shows Lebanese cucumbers which are available and similar to Japanese cucumbers in Australia. If you can find Japanese cucumbers called "Kyuri" they would be the best option. Continental cucumbers are also okay to use.
- *2 Soy sauce can be replaced with coconut aminos or liquid aminos.
- *3 Chicken Carcass instant soup granules. Available from Japanese grocery stores or Online shops.
- *4 Optional. If you like a spicy kick, use a whole togarashi, or the amount to your liking.
