Step 1
Gather all the ingredients.
Step 2
Rinse the cucumbers and cut both sides of the edge.
Step 3
Rub the 2 piece of cucumbers against each other until you see the small bubbles. It is to remove the bitterness from the cucumber. Discard the two ends.
Step 4
Slice the cucumbers.
Step 5
Peel the ginger and cut into julienne strips.
Step 6
Put the cucumber, salt, and ginger in the Ziploc bag.
Step 7
Remove the air out and seal completely.
Step 8
Place a heavy object on top of the cucumbers and refrigerate it for 1-2 hours. Here I sandwiched the Ziploc bag with two plates and then put the mortar on top. I recommend 3 hours at most otherwise it gets too salty. Check the level of saltiness according to your preference. Enjoy!
Step 9
You can keep the pickles in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. When the flavor is getting strong, remove the solution and store the pickles in an airtight container.
