CRUNCHY CHINESE CUCUMBER SALAD RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Crunchy Chinese Cucumber Salad Recipe - Food.com image

A lovely crunchy salad which takes a bit more time than a simple cucumber salad, but it's really worth it! Goes well as a starter or a side dish with a chinese meal. Cooking time includes leaving the cucumbers in salted water for 20 minutes and standing time (to develop the flavour of the salad) of 2 hours.

Total Time 2 hours 40 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 2 hours 25 minutes

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon cooking oil
1 big mild chili pepper, deseeded, sliced into rings (or a small hot chilli finely chopped)
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons dark rice vinegar
1 tablespoon white wine
1/2 tablespoon sesame oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1/2 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1 cucumber (ca 350g/12ounces, unpeeled)
150 ml hot water
1/2 tablespoon salt

Steps:

  • Preparation of cucumber:.
  • Half washed but unpeeled cucumber lengthwise. Remove the seeds with a spoon and discard. Slice into ca 1/2 cm / 1/5 inch pieces. Put into a bowl.
  • Mix hot water and salt and pour it over the cucumber pieces. Leave cucumbers in water for ca 20 minutes.
  • Dressing:.
  • Heat oil in a medium skillet.
  • Add chilli and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the remaining ingredients of the dressing until the sesame oil. Cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add garlic and sesame. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Put aside.
  • Finish Salad:.
  • Drain the cucumber pieces (after the 20 minutes in the water) and squeeze them slightly. Mix with the dressing (I do this in the skillet and put salad afterwards into a bowl) and leave the salad for 2 hours to develop its flavour.
  • Serve as a starter or as a side dish to a chinese meal.

CHINESE SMASHED CUCUMBERS WITH SESAME OIL AND GARLIC RECIPE
In China, cucumbers are considered the ideal foil for hot weather and hot food. Versions of this salad, pai huang gua, are served all over the country, sometimes spiked with dried chiles and Sichuan peppercorns for more dimensions of flavor. In Beijing, people buy whole chilled cucumbers from street vendors and munch them on the go, much as Americans become attached to their cups of iced coffee in summer. The smashing process, a classic Chinese technique, cracks the skin, helps release the seeds and splits the flesh into appealing craggy pieces. Salting and chilling the cracked cucumbers give them the perfect cool, crunchy, watery mouth feel.

Taste and add more pepper flakes and garlic if needed. Serve immediately, garnished with cilantro and sesame seeds.
