Preparation
Step 1
* Note: If Japanese cucumbers are not available, English cucumbers can be substituted. The English cucumbers need to be peeled, cut lengthwise, seeded and sliced into thin half moons.
In a large bowl, combine cucumbers and salt and mix well. Add sugar, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil and mix well. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and mix.
Put aside and let marinate for 20 minutes before serving. Adjust seasonings before serving.
Divide salad among four chilled plates.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
Wine Recommendation: This salad is perfect for a Sauvignon Blanc. Also it can be pared with Sake, which is Japanese rice wine. Robert Mondavis Fume Blanc is a suitable option for this dish.
