This Man's Cook Cucumber Salad

A simple, no-fuss cucumber salad that maximizes crispness and nuttiness by using plenty of ground sesame instead of toasted sesame oil to lock in moisture.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Adding sesame oil may cause excessive moisture release from the cucumber, so use plenty of ground sesame seeds to absorb the water and maintain texture.
  • The stem end of the cucumber is especially bitter—don’t hesitate to cut it off generously to preserve the overall flavor.
  • Avoid pressing or smashing the cucumber too hard while mixing, as this damages its crisp texture. Instead, gently swirl and fold.

Recommended for

  • Those needing a fresh summer side dish that requires no cooking and takes under 10 minutes to prepare.
  • People who want a clean, non-waterlogged cucumber salad that stays dry even after standing.
  • Fans of tangy-sweet flavors with a satisfying nutty kick as a flavorful base side dish.
