Cabbage 🥬 and Cucumber Tsukemono

I wanted to try to lose weight while still eating delicious food, and I always wanted to eat a lot of vegetables! So I made this!The shio-konbu (shredded konbu seaweed cooked in soy sauce) is salty, so please adjust the amount of salt to your taste. I think you just need a little bit. For 1 to 2 servings.

We're a couple who always seem to have leftover Chinese cabbage from making hot pots.I made this unique tsukemono (pickled dish) because the I wanted to use up the Chinese cabbage.I also posted a cucumber version at.Adding 1/2 teaspoon of kombu tea will produce a light flavor, while 1 teaspoon will give a robust flavor.Eat as is or strengthen the taste with soy sauce.Be sure to squeeze out the water after salting the cabbage.

I wanted to use up some cucumber so I came up with this. I was getting bored with the usual way of eating cucumber, but I can eat lots of it in this.There are no hints because it's so easy. For 2 servings. Recipe by Manmarumauchan

This recipe is great for hot days and always a hit at bbqs......good way to use fresh veggies from the garden and very simple to throw together ahead of time :-)

This is the type of food that you expect to see at izakakaya restaurants as appetizer called “otooshi”. While you look at the menu thinking what to order, you get something to munch on. Isn’t it great?!

My grandmother taught me this. I started adding in tomatoes because I love tomatoes and instead of just white vinegar I like the red wine vinegar but will use white if that is what I have

A simple, refreshing salad.

I made this easy refreshing salad again and again during summer. Even in autumn my husband asks me to make it. It's good just as it is, but I like to add the flavour of freshly ground sesame seeds. I hope you enjoy it.

I came up with this new dish by combining an idea from a recipe from my reliable Cookpad mate, "tomimo" with one of my own recipes.Toss the ingredients in the dressing right before serving. While it also tastes good tender, it will be a bit watery. Adjust the amount of umeboshi depending on the type you use. Recipe by Chikori mama

A light "chunky" side dish to compliment most grilled BBQ meals or serve with Italian dishes. The fresh basil gives it a nice flavor. Add a “hint of mint” (instead of basil) and black olives for a slight, cool refreshing taste, especially with Mediterranean dishes of lamb, grilled chorizo and/or seafood.

I received a lot of cucumbers, and while I ate them in the form of salads and pickles, I got tired of those dishes, so I tried making this.Adding bonito dashi stock granules deepens the flavours of the dish.It's alright to use regular sesame seeds instead of roasted ones. Try adding a little sesame oil to enjoy a different taste.Alternatively, julienning or roughly cubing the cucumbers and eating them with cold tofu or noodles is also delicious. Recipe by unihotate

Whenever I run out of vegetables, I make this dish.It tastes best if you don't cook the cabbage too long to preserve the crunchiness! Recipe by Chibisakunyan

By pickling these whole, I was able to streamline the process.Save the pickling juice to use for next time, or use it to season other dishes. Recipe by yamita

Anytime I BBQ in the summer I throw this quick and easy salad together. It's simple and delicious. Sometimes, I'll add greens like pea shoots or other micro greens with it.

I used the cucumber and shiso leaves left over after making(Easy Chikuwa with Cucumber, Ume, Shiso Leaves) to make another dish.I used about a teaspoon of wasabi paste. Please adjust the amount to your taste. Recipe by Snow*Love

I've been having this simple breakfast often lately and recommend it if you enjoy stir fried cabbage. With some sausage/beans and lively tomato, this is a great spring breakfast!

Low carb

Store-bought pickling liquid contains lots of additives, so I thought I'd trying making my own with what ingredients I had on hand. It was a success, so I upload the recipe here.The listed quantity of salt is minimal, so feel free to increase it if you like. Recipe by Ryo---ko.

I love this salad!

Esta ensalada es muy sencilla de preparar, pero tiene un rico sabor, es muy fresca y el complemento perfecto para carnes de res, pollo o cerdo empanizadas, asadas o fritas.

I learned this recipe from my grandparents. It's great for using up lots of cucumbers in the summer.1/2 teaspoon is on the low side, and I prefer about 1 teaspoon. This is best chilled. If the cucumbers look dirty after rolling them on the cutting board, wash them off and sprinkle with more salt. Recipe by Yuki

Sanbaizu 三杯酢 literally means “3 cup vinegar”. In general, it’s known as a type of sweet sour dressing in Japan.

I had a bunch of homegrown radishes. Pickling is the best way to prepare them.For the photo, I cut only some of the cucumbers jabara style. Since the radishes were the elongated variety, I halved them lengthwise. The kombucha gives instant pickles a good taste. The shredded kombu also gives a good flavor, and turns it into a Japanese style salad. It's addictive. Recipe by commeline

Great for a summer barbecue to add a fresh Cucumber salad!

I mixed cucumbers with konbu-cha to prepare instant pickles, but I thought it might also make a good little appetizer if I also added garlic.Water will come out of the cucumbers over time, so mix in the konbu-cha and garlic just before serving. Recipe by Poron526

I wanted to use up the shiso leaves I grew on my balcony.It's fine to heat the cabbage until it wilts a little. Microwave it to suit your liking. Recipe by Naopa-ku
