Steps

  1. 1.Thinly slice 4-5 Persian cucumbers for crunch and volume. Add it to a large bowl or serving dish.
  2. 4.Finally, let’s dress it up. Instead of straight mayo, I mixed 4 tbsp greek yogurt and 1.5 tbsp of mayo to add the creaminess 1 tbsp yellow or dijon mustard, a couple pinches of salt & pepper, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 1.5 tbsp soy sauce or tamari, 1 to 2 tbsp sriracha. Optional you can add 1 tsp sesame oil for more flavor, though not required. And add 1 tbsp sesame seeds for a little more crunch.
  3. 5.Toss it up, and enjoy on its own, in between a pack of seaweed sheets, or scoop it over some bell pepper lettuce, or sourdough.
