Summer Asian Cucumber Salad

This is a great summertime dish! If you have cucumbers on hand, you can make this dish in about 20 minutes (including marinating time). In this case, I used pickling cucumbers, but you can also use normal cucumbers. I used a recipe similar to the one posted here. The only differences this time are:

1) I only "salted" & squeezed out the water once since pickling cucumbers have less water content than regular cucumbers

2) I used kosher sea salt instead of soy sauce

3) I did not have fresh garlic on hand so I used garlic powder instead

4) I omitted the sugar

The dish was still delicious - crunchy, refreshing, and light. All in all, it's quite flexible how you want to flavor the cucumbers.

Experiment!
