Advice
Salt and drain the cucumbers. It keeps them crisp and stops the salad from turning watery.
Why it works π‘
Gochugaru blooms in the vinegar and soy, sesame oil adds depth, and the quick salting pulls out water while locking in crunch.
Twist πΆοΈ
Add 150 g radish, thin sliced (1Β½ cups / 5.3 oz) for extra bite, or add 5 g grated ginger (1 tsp / 0.18 oz) for a brighter finish.
