Din Tai Fung-Inspired Asian Cucumber Salad
Ingredients:
For the Salad:
– 12 oz. Persian cucumbers (about 6-7 mini cucumbers): These crisp cucumbers offer a mild flavor.
– 1 tsp coarse sea salt: Enhances cucumber texture by drawing out excess moisture.
For the Honey Chili Garlic Vinaigrette:
– 2.5 tbsp rice vinegar: Adds acidity and brightness.
– 0.3 oz grated garlic: Provides sharp, aromatic flavor.
– 2 tbsp keto honey or 1.5 tbsp regular honey: Sweetens the dressing (keto honey is a low-carb option).
– 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil: Infuses a rich, nutty taste.
– 1-1.5 tsp Garlic chili sauce, optional: Offers a spicy kick to the dressing.
