Hello, I’m Lucy. Today I’m sharing a quick and refreshing Japanese side dish—
a 10-minute Japanese cucumber salad that’s perfect for summer meals or light snacking. It’s simple, crisp, and incredibly flavorful.
Ingredients
🥒 2 Japanese cucumbers 🧂 2 tsp salt
🍚 2 tbsp rice vinegar 🍬 1 tbsp sugar
🟫 1½ tsp soy sauce 🌱 2 tsp sesame seeds
Quick Prep
Thinly slice the cucumbers, toss them with salt, and let them sit for 5 minutes. Rinse, squeeze out moisture, and pat dry.
In a small bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and sesame seeds until the sugar dissolves.
Toss the cucumbers with the dressing and serve chilled.
The cucumbers stay crisp while soaking up that sweet-tangy-salty dressing, and the sesame seeds add a nutty finish that completes each bite. “So easy yet packed with flavor—this is my go-to summer salad!” as one viewer commented.
