Din Tai Fung Easy Cucumber Salad

Step 1

Wash the cucumber and then pat dry. Cut the cucumber into about 1/2-inch thick slices. Try to cut as evenly as possible so every piece is roughly about the same size

Step 2

Add salt and let it marinate for 1 hour. The salt will draw out water from the cucumber, which will make the cucumber crisp

Step 3

Rinse off excess salt with clean water. Pat the cucumber really dry

Step 4

Mix all ingredients for seasonings and stir to combine

Step 5

Pour the seasonings over the cucumber. Chill in the fridge for at least one hour if possible. This cucumber salad tastes even better when it's chilled
