Cucumber Namasu
2 to 3 cucumbers
1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
Place the cucumbers by slicing them in half. Remove the seeds if they are
large. Slice in thin diagonals. Sprinkle with the 1 tablespoon of salt and
place in a bowl. Let stand for 20 minutes. Rinse, drain, and remove excess
water by putting the cucumbers in a kitchen towel and squeezing out the
water. Combine the sugar, vinegar, remaining salt, and ginger. Pour over
the
cucumbers and chill.
