Instructions

  1. Combine cucumber, onion, rice vinegar, and salt & pepper in a medium-sized non-reactive bowl. Add kimchi and toasted sesame seeds. Stir to combine. Refrigerate for at least an hour or two before eating, as it gets better the longer it sits. Best eaten within 3-4 days. Enjoy!

Notes

  • This recipe makes approximately 4-6 banchan sized servings or 2-3 side dish servings.
  • Regular sesame seeds have a different texture and flavor than toasted sesame seeds.  It's worth it to buy toasted sesame seeds for this recipe.  Use the rest as a garnish on all your favorite Asian foods or in sesame dressing.
