Accordion cucumber salad✨ For the Cucumbers:▪️6 Small Persian Cucumbers▪️2 tsp Kosher Salt▪️ For the Sauce:▪️2 Cloves Garlic, minced▪️1 Thai Chili, sliced (skip if you don't like spicy)▪️2 Tbsp Rice Vinegar▪️2 Tbsp Soy Sauce▪️1 tsp Sugar▪️1 Tbsp Sesame Oil▪️1 Tbsp Sesame Seeds▪️ 1️⃣ Place chopsticks on either side of the cucumber and cut horizontal lines down the entire cucumber (the chopsticks will prevent you from cutting all the way through). 2️⃣ Flip the cucumber over (so cuts are facing down). With chopsticks on either side, cut diagonal lines all the way down the cucumber. Stretch and you should see the spiral. 3️⃣ Place the cucumbers in a colander over the sink and sprinkle with 2 tsp salt (this will help the cucumbers release excess water). Gently rub the salt in and around the cucumbers, let sit for 5 minutes, then rise off the salt. Dry the cucumbers and place them in a bowl. 4️⃣ In a separate small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the sauce. Pour the sauce over the cucumbers, mix, and enjoy immediately while the cucumbers are crunchy and fresh! ⏲15 minute total prep + cook time Recipe serves 2 people
