Categories: Korean, Salads, Vegetables, Ethnic

This simple cucumber salad is a pleasant accompaniment
to a hot summer night. Small cucumbers are suggested;
they are not quite as watery as the large ones nor do
they require peeling.

1. Slice the cucumbers in circles. Sprinkle salt over
the cucumber slices, mix well and let them stand for
30 minutes. Place the cucumbers in a damp cloth and
gently but firmly squeeze out as much water as
possible. The less watery the cucumbers, the better
tasting the dish.

2. Crush the garlic, then combine it with the
cucumbers, salt, sesame seeds, sesame oil, pepper and
sugar in a bowl. Mix well.
