Cucumber with Sesame Seeds

Cucumber has a lot of moisture, so adding boiled egg helps to release water. It leaves the flavor of egg, at the same time, giving body to the taste and a plain flavor.

Pen Pen (my 4-year-old) says that cucumbers are too tough to chew... hard to relate for us adults. So, I attempted to recreate a pounded cucumber recipe that I tried once at a Japanese pub! For kids, I omit the garlic and ginger. I had Pen Pen pound the cucumber with a rolling pin. The cucumbers had a different texture that was apparently refreshing.When serving to adults, I recommend 1/2 a clove grated garlic and a touch of grated ginger...Increasing the salt content may help to prevent heat exhaustion.

I created my own recipe for namul while cutting cucumbers and tomatoes. The usual namul ingredients like spinach and bean sprouts are blanched, but I didn't cook the cucumber and tomato since I wanted to enjoy them raw. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru

I bought some really fresh cucumbers, so I thought up this recipe.This is good with ground sesame seeds, but by using toasted whole sesame seeds, you can enjoy the fresh taste of the cucumber. The fragrant nuttiness of the sesame seeds fills your mouth as you chew the rough bits of cucumber. Fellow COOKPAD user "youichie" reminded me that this tastes better if you let it rest for a while to let the flavors meld. Also, user "riebel's" comment made me think of this: the sesame vinegar gets watered down by the moisture in the cucumber to the point where you can drink it up, but if you're in a situation where that would be rather impolite, reserve the sesame seeds and scatter on the cucumber just before serving to prevent it from going to waste.

あと一品欲しいな、という時に。彩りもきれいですよ。

The only thing i do differently on the recipe is i use one large seedless cucumber, around 12" and omit the tomatoes. Very tasty side dish, enjoy!

Cucumber salad

This is a cucumber version of my popular "Easy Spinach and Chikuwa with Mayonnaise and Ponzu".I tried adding more ground sesame seeds to increase the flavour.My 1-year-old son won't eat fresh vegetables, but he loves this and eats it all up.Make sure you squeeze out the cucumber well!

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

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.

It only takes 10 mins to add one more flavorful dish on the table 😉

This came to me when I was nibbling on a cucumber after taking a bath, because I didn't have any dessert on hand.Just chill it very well in the refrigerator!!Slice the cucumbers very thinly.Use whatever ponzu sauce you like, but I recommend one that has yuzu in it. It's really good.If you are using regular ponzu sauce, you may want to add a little sugar. For 2 servings. Recipe by Ponzu shokunin nao

My mother taught me this recipe.Since it's a simple, basic Japanese dish, I'm posting it as a record for my daughter.Parboil the spinach briefly in a generous amount of boiling water.If you use ground white sesame seeds, you'll have goma-ae. Recipe by Hitomi

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

Es una guarnición fácil, fresca y súper rica, es lo que yo llamo #cocinarelax

My mother used to make a similar recipe when I was younger. I was never able to get the recipe from her so this is the best recreation of it.

So, sesame seeds. Even if you buy toasted sesame seeds, toast them again before you use them. They'll be just as good as expensive sesame seeds They'll become so much more fragrant.Your dishes will become so much tastier!Don't burn the sesame seeds. Toast slowly and patiently so that they don't burn. Although sesame seeds play a supporting role in cooking, they'll make your dishes so delicious.If the supporting player is good, even if the main players in a dish are a bit cheap, the final dish will be really tasty overall.

When I used to eat bentos for lunch, green peppers with semi-dried baby sardines was a regular item. Now, I'm into making sautéd vegetables, like eggplant sprinkled with sesame seeds.If you prefer a crispy texture, be careful not to overcook the peppers.You can add the sesame seeds in Step 4 after removing the pepper slices from heat.

It's a delicious, fun, and easy recipe!If you're not worried about the sugar content, I recommend adding more sesame seeds. The profile photo is with white sesame seeds, but black sesame would also be delicious. Tuna, chikuwa (fish paste sticks), crab sticks, normal ham would also work, but consider the sugar contents when substituting. Recipe by Ao3150

I tried to recreate a side dish that I ate in a Benitora gyoza dumpling restaurant.I changed the tool for pounding from a knife to a rolling pin (users were rightly saying that it's dangerous!). I used a small rolling pin that I would normally use to roll out gyoza dumpling wrappers. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki

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?!
