Cooking tips

  • Since this is a fresh, immediate-eat side dish rather than a long-storing kimchi, do not scoop out the cucumber seeds—cut them whole to preserve crispness.
  • Over time, cucumbers release a lot of moisture, so it’s best to mix right before eating and consume the entire batch the same day for optimal freshness and taste.

Recommended for

  • People who want to quickly make a delicious side dish without using heat during a busy day.
  • Those looking to refresh their mood with a crisp, tangy vegetable salad to wake up from lethargy and stimulate their appetite.
