Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 large cucumbers (peeled or unpeeled but washed) or 1 English cucumber, cut into chunks
1 - 2 clove garlic (optional, depending on your garlic preference)
1 small handful fresh mint leaves (chopped) or 2 teaspoons dried mint leaves
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (add more if you prefer spicier)
1/2 c seasoned rice wine vinegar

Steps:

1. In a large bowl, combine cucumbers, garlic, mint leaves, and red pepper flakes. Toss in the bowl to distribute evenly. NOTE: Sometimes I stripe-peel my cucumbers, using a potato peeler. This means that I leave strips of skin for more texture.
2. Add rice wine vinegar. Toss again.
3. Cover bowl and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. (I place mine in a large plastic storage bag until serving time.)

Sweet and Tangy Thai Cucumber Salad image

Smash the cucumbers. Using the back of a heavy knife, smash down on each cucumber using the widest part of the blade (similar to smashing down on a garlic clove to remove its peel) until the cucumber cracks open into a few pieces.1. NOTE: If using a large English cucumber, cut the cucumber into three segments before smashing.
Place the cucumber chunks in a colander and sprinkle with a bit of kosher salt. Place the colander on top of a bowl. Allow the cucumbers to rest for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour. Discard any liquid collected in the bowl.
Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts. To toast pine nuts, add them to a dry skillet over medium-low heat and toss occasionally until golden brown, 3-5 minutes.
