Soy-Pickled Cucumber Recipe – Sybaritica

Soy-Pickled Cucumber slices are crisp, just a little salty, and pleasantly tangy. They make a great snack as well as a side dish at meals.

• 2 Cups thick Cucumber slices
• 1 Tbsp. Coarse Salt
• 1 Tbsp. Sesame Seeds
• 1 Tbsp. fresh Ginger shreds
• 1 Cup Vinegar
• 2/3 Cup Soy Sauce
• 1/3 Cup Rice Wine

• Mix the salt in to the Cucumber slices and macerate for an hour or so.
• Squeeze the slices to remove as much juice as possible then toss them with the ginger slivers and sesame seeds. Marinate for a further hour.
• Put the slices and all the remaining ingredients in a jar, shake, and let sit in a cool place to pickle for at least three days.
