Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together cucumbers & salt. Set aside for 15 minutes.
- In the meantime, in a mixing bowl, combine rice vinegar, gochujang, sugar, garlic, sesame oil, & sesame seeds.
- Drain any excess liquid from the cucumbers. Gently squeeze the cucumbers to release any additional liquid, but be careful not to bruise the cucumbers.
- Combine cucumbers with the dressing & enjoy!
Notes
- Cucumbers: If you can't find kirby cucumbers, English, Persian, or pickling cucumbers work as well. You want cucumbers with a thin peel. Remove cucumber seeds if there are a lot so the cucumber salad doesn't turn too watery.
- Gochugaru: This is Korean chili flakes that can be easily found in Korean or Asian markets, or online. There are very mild in spice!
