I wanted to make an easy-prep, salt-cured cucumber that even children would like. When I used the recipe with the seasoning from shirasu sauce, it turned out delicious. It's now one of my daughter's favorites. For those who like spice, add red chili peppers when curing.Thoroughly dissolve the sugar. Curing for 2 hours gives a perfect crunchiness and the cucumbers become well cured. If longer, the seasoning will blend in, but the crunchiness will disappear.If you peel the cucumbers a little, they will cure more evenly. Recipe by Tsukonindesumasu

Since I love the combination of umeboshi and miso, I tried it out on pounded cucumber.It's best to use unsweetened umeboshi. If left sitting for too long, this will become watery, so serve as soon as you mix in the seasoning. It has 53 kcal per serving. Recipe by LazyHata

I had garlic marinade in soy sauce, so used it on some cucumbers I happened to have at home.I omit red chili peppers from mine since I serve it to my kids, but if you like spicy food, try adding some chili.This can be made with celery as well. Recipe by milk chai

This is a great side dish for any entree, especially for deep-fried meat. It can balance the taste and bring comfort after eating a heavy seasoning cuisine. Enjoy~~*Welcome to visit "Note-a-licious" blog!https://note-a-licious.blogspot.com/FB: https://www.facebook.com/Note.a.licious

I think that vinegar dishes taste great in the summer. I substituted the sesame oil from the cucumber vinegar dish that I normally make with mustard, and made a Chinese-style version.Make sure to check the flavor before serving it. Add salt if it is weak, or add a little water if it is too strong. It also tastes great if you substitute mustard for julienned or grated ginger. Recipe by Iku..

A native vegetable in Kaga prefecture, Kaga cucumbers are larger and wider than common Japanese cucumbers. The flesh is thick and has a dense texture, and can be used in cooking. It has such substance that it can even be featured in a main dish.In the summertime, serve this dish chilled, and the ankake thick sauce will cool you down nicely.The imitation crab meat is optional. Minced chicken or shrimp also goes well in this recipe.Light soy sauce enhances the color of the fresh green cucumbers better than regular soy sauce.This dish will also be delicious if you use your homegrown overgrown fat cucumbers to make this dish, too.

This dish is great for those times when you need one more dish but you don't have enough time nor ingredients.I came up with this idea just at such a moment and used what I could find in the refrigerator.Honestly, it only takes 3 minutes to make. Easy, but an authentic taste.The tartness of salt-cured plum (umeboshi) is great in this recipe. If using sweet honey-soaked umeboshi, replace the mirin with an equivalent amount of Japanese noodle dipping sauce.Use mentsuyu (Japanese noodle dipping sauce) that's been concentrated about 3-4 times.Adjust the quantity to your liking.

I'm not sure what the English word for this dish is, but in Vietnamese it's "Chả cá chiên nước mắm". Hope you guys enjoy the recipe I put up.Because this dish has fish sauce, it will be relatively salty, with a little bit of chili, to soften the above flavors, eating with cucumber is a very good choice./ Vì món này có nước mắm nên sẽ tương đối mặn, còn có thêm chút ớt, để làm dịu các vị trên, ăn kèm với dưa leo là một lựa chọn rất ổn.Note: Don't let the garlic get too yellow before you put the fish in, it will burn easily like me./Lưu ý: Đừng để tỏi vàng quá rồi mới cho cá vào, sẽ dễ bị cháy như me.
