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~~

That Sauce! Chinese-style Salt Cured Cucumbers That Sauce! Chinese-style Salt Cured Cucumbers

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

Pounded Cucumber with Refreshing Pickled Plum and Miso Sauce Pounded Cucumber with Refreshing Pickled Plum and Miso Sauce

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

Chinese-style Cucumber and Imitation Crab in Vinegar Sauce Chinese-style Cucumber and Imitation Crab in Vinegar Sauce

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..

Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt Chilled Spaghetti with Basil Sauce and Yogurt

Basil sauce itself doesn't blend well with the pasta, but I didn't want to add so much oil.That's why I experimented with mixing in yogurt. It surprisingly added a rich flavor to the sauce and it was quite tasty.This dish is also great as a side dish for a richer main dish!Please leave out the lemon juice if you're not a fan of tart food.Taste the basil sauce beforehand and adjust the amount of salt and pepper for the seasoning.Squeeze with a cloth or paper towel and drain it well. For 1 serving. Recipe by Nanamama
