Step 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.

Step 2

Add rice wine vinegar. Toss again.

Step 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.)
