Default Japanese Restaurant Cucumber Salad

Ingredients
    • 2 tablespoons white sugar
    • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
    • 1 teaspoon Asian (toasted) sesame oil
    • 1 teaspoon chili paste (sambal oelek)
    • salt to taste
    • 2 large cucumbers - peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch slices
Instructions
    1. Whisk sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, chile paste, and salt together in a bowl. Add cucumbers and stir to coat.
    2. Allow salad to marinate for 30 minutes before serving at room temperature.

    Notes
  • I use Japanese cucumbers so I don't need to seed them.
