Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 piece cucumber (Japanese or English, 1 cucumber is about 9 oz / 255.15 g)
  • 1/4 red onion
  • 4 tsp sugar
  • 4.5 tsp rice vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt (Trader Joe's)
  • 1.5 tsp red chili powder (gochukaru)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Cut cucumbers into thin slices. You can cut at a diagonal or just straight in discs. Best thickness is about 1/8th inch thick. Also thinly slice quarter of a red onion.
  2. In a bowl, add cucumbers, onions and all the seasonings. Mix until cucumbers are evenly coated. It is best to let it sit a couple minutes before serving when the flavors have been absorbed by the cucumbers.

Notes

  • It is best to use English, Japanese or pickle cucumbers. If you cannot get these, you can peel and remove seeds from common cucumbers.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge. Good for 2-3 days. 
  • Adjust amount of red chili pepper powder and sugar to taste.
