Cucumber Salad with Sesame Dressing

Hey foodies!

Today, I’m going to share with you a super easy and refreshing recipe that’s perfect for a light snack or as a side dish for your meals. We’re making Cucumber Salad with Sesame Dressing! It’s crunchy, tangy, and just a little nutty thanks to the sesame seeds. Plus, it’s so simple that even a 7th grader could make it!

First things first, we need to prepare our cucumbers. Grab a fresh cucumber and slice it up. You can cut it into thin rounds like little circles or, if you’re feeling fancy, into strips like tiny cucumber sticks. This part is really up to you and what you like best. Just make sure they’re not too thick, so the dressing can soak in nicely!

Next, we’re going to make the dressing. Take a small bowl and add some rice vinegar and soy sauce. These two ingredients are going to give our salad a nice tangy taste. Now, add some sesame seeds. These little guys are going to add a nutty flavor and a bit of crunch. Grab a whisk or a fork and mix it all together until everything is well combined.

Now it’s time to bring it all together! Take your sliced cucumbers and put them in a bigger bowl. Pour the sesame dressing over them and give it a good toss. You want to make sure every piece of cucumber gets coated in that delicious dressing. This is where all the flavors come together, and your salad starts to look and smell amazing!

Finally, it’s time to enjoy your creation! Serve the cucumber salad right away as a refreshing appetizer or as a side dish with your meal. It’s light, crisp, and the perfect way to add some freshness to your plate. I hope you enjoy making and eating this simple cucumber salad as much as I do! Happy cooking! 😊
