Realizing that the taste will be compromised if the cucumbers are added right after slicing, I came up with some tricks to make this dish last, even through to the following day.

The residual heat in the bean sprouts and flavoring will melt the sugar and blend in nicely. Since the water content is already removed from the cucumbers, this dish will not become watery over time. Recipe by Asamato
