• Cucumber2
• Fresh ginger1 knob
• Salt1/2 tsp
• Sesame oil1 tsp

1. 1

   Cut 2 cucumbers into matchsticks about 5 cm long. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and let sit for at least 10 minutes. Discard the water that is released.

2. 2

   Cut 1 knob of fresh ginger into thin julienne strips.

3. 3

   Place the drained cucumbers, ginger, and 1 tsp sesame oil into a zip-lock bag and massage everything together well. This method keeps cleanup to a minimum.

4. 4

   Chill in the refrigerator before serving.

For the best flavor, add the ginger and sesame oil after the cucumbers have been salted for at least 10 minutes. If you're in a hurry, you can reduce the salt slightly and add the sesame oil right away. Adjust the amount of salt depending on the size of your cucumbers.
