How to Make Cold Cucumber Salad

Estimated Cooking Difficulty: ★

Essential Ingredients and Tools

  • Cucumber
  • Vinegar
  • Soy Sauce
  • Garlic

Calculation

Determine how many servings you want to make before each preparation. One serving is sufficient for 1 person.

Total Amount:

  • Cucumber: 200 g × Number of servings
  • Vinegar: 7.5 ml + (4 ml × Number of servings)
  • Soy Sauce: 5 ml + (2.5 ml × Number of servings)
  • Garlic: 3 cloves × Number of servings
  • Salt: 0.4 g + (0.2 g × Number of servings)
  • Sesame Oil: 5 ml + (2 ml × Number of servings)
  • Oyster Sauce: 5 ml

Instructions

  • Use a kitchen knife to flatten the cucumber, then chop it into 3 cm pieces.
  • Place the chopped cucumber into a bowl.
  • Crush and mince the garlic.
  • Add the vinegar, soy sauce, salt, oyster sauce, and minced garlic to the bowl in sequence. Stir well and marinate for 15 minutes.
  • Pour in the sesame oil and stir evenly.

Additional Notes

  • In some cases, the ends of the cucumber may taste bitter. Wash and cut them off, then verify if they are bitter.
  • You can eat it immediately after preparation, or refrigerate it (not freeze) after preparing it in advance.
  • If refrigerated, wrap it tightly with plastic wrap and consume within 8 hours. Otherwise, the cucumber may lose its crisp texture due to over-marination.
  • Peeling the cucumber is recommended for a better texture.
