When I lived in Korea, I was shown this Korean cucumber salad recipe, made with cucumbers, green onions, and sesame seeds. Goes well with bulgogi (Korean barbecued beef), which you can find on this site!

Ingredients

  • 0.25 cups white vinegar
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1 cucumber , thinly sliced
  • 0.5 greens onion , sliced
  • ½ carrot , julienned

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium bowl, stir together vinegar, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in sesame seeds, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until seeds are brown, about 5 minutes. Remove seeds with a slotted spoon, and stir into vinegar mixture. Mix in cucumber, green onions, and carrot. Cover and refrigerate, at least 5 minutes.
