Recipe
Cooking tips
- Pounding the cucumbers instead of cutting them cleanly creates more surface area, allowing the seasoning to absorb much better.
- Adding a touch of huazhou oil (sansho oil) at the end brings out the unique spicy aroma of Chinese cuisine, enhancing the exotic flavor.
- After tasting, add a pinch of salt if the dish is too bland to suit your preference.
Recommended for
