We graciously received a bag of garden fresh cucumbers. I often just slice the cucumbers and dress lightly with seasoned rice vinegar. Here's a delicious variation.
3 small garden cucumbers or 2 larger cucumbers from the store
1/2 tsp wasabi powder (or more if you like it spicy)
1/2 tsp warm water
2 Tbl rice vinegar (not seasoned)
1 Tbl. sugar
1/4 tsp salt or soy sauce
1 Tbl. sesame seeds
If the cucumbers are from the store (and not the unwaxed english type), they should be peeled. Slice the cucumbers. Make the dressing by dissolving the wasabi powder in an equal amount of water. Add the vinegar, sugar.and salt. Pour over the cucumbers. Lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan. Sprinkle on the cucumbers right before serving.
