Cucumber Salad Recipe

2 large cucumbers
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1 2/3 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 1/2 tsp. fresh ginger, grated
2 tsp. (low sodium) soy sauce
1/2 tbsp. sesame seeds, toasted
Directions

In a medium bowl, combine vinegar, sugar, salt, soy sauce and ginger and mix well.

Partially peel the cucumbers, leaving alternating strips of peel on each cucumber (see photos). Slice cucumbers in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, carefully remove the seeds and discard. Slice cucumbers horizontally and very thinly. Add cucumber slices to vinegar mixture and toss to coat

Refrigerate for 30 minutes to one hour.
