Ingredients

  • 2 large cucumbers, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Measuring cups and spoons

  3. Pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss to coat.

Notes

Cucumber salad with rice vinegar is best enjoyed when it is freshly made. The longer it sits, the more the cucumbers will release their water and the salad will become watery. If you want to make this salad ahead of time, it's best to prepare the dressing separately and toss it with the cucumbers just before serving.
