Ingredients Cucumbers: Fresh green cucumbers (washed and trimmed) Salt: Coarse salt for the initial marinating and crunch-locking process Garlic: Freshly minced garlic for rich aromatic depth Red Chilies: Freshly minced red chilies for a vibrant pop of spice Sesame Oil: Nutty and aromatic sesame oil Olive Oil: A gentle drizzle for rich balance Seasonings: A dash of black pepper, chili powder, and sugar to taste Sesame Seeds: Plenty of toasted white sesame seeds for garnish and crunch Step-by-Step Instructions Prep the Cucumbers: Wash the fresh cucumbers and trim the ends. Place chopsticks on both sides of each cucumber and make diagonal slices. The chopsticks will prevent you from slicing all the way through, creating a flexible, gorgeous accordion shape. Salt and Rest: Transfer the prepared cucumbers into a large bowl. Sprinkle a generous amount of coarse salt over them and massage lovingly with your hands for about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture and lock in an amazing crunch. Rinse lightly if needed and drain. Mince Aromatics: Mince fresh garlic and red chilies finely. Mix the Dressing: Add the flexible cucumbers to a clean bowl. Pour in a drizzle of olive oil, nutty sesame oil, a dash of black pepper, chili powder, and a touch of sugar. Add the freshly minced garlic, chilies, and plenty of sesame seeds right on top. Toss Gently: Mix everything together thoroughly using chopsticks or gentle hands, ensuring every single fold of the accordion cucumbers soaks up the delicious dressing. Serve and Enjoy: Plate your stunning Korean-style sesame and garlic cucumber salad, serve at your next picnic or family meal, and enjoy! #EasyRecipe #PicnicFood #HealthySalad #CookingChannel #Foodie #AsianCooking #QuickRecipes #Delicious Thank you for watching the video to the end ❤️ Turn on notifications to see my new recipes first 🔔 MIx Cucumber, Tomato & Carrot:    • Carrot Roast Peanuts Salad | This quick ✨3...   Carrot Salad Recipes | 3-minute salad:    • Only 2 Ingredient: Cucumber and Onion Sala...   Cucumber Salad Recipes:    • Only 2 Ingredient: Cucumber and Onion Sala...   Salad That Burns Belly Fat:    • 3-minute salad | Cucumber Salad That Burns...   If you liked the video: 👍 Rate the video!
