Chingon quick tip if you salt the cucumber and let them rest 15-20 minutes before putting them into your marinade they'll sweat out their water which would do two things for your Asian cucumber salad, first it'll take away the ' bitterness ' and second it'll keep all that extra water from the cucumbers from making your marinade all thin and watery which helps when you want to keep it in your fridge instead of consuming immediately after making. Edit: it's also the same way you'll make sunomono, and you can prep the marinade portion of it ahead of time in a large batch and use it whenever you want, it'll keep in the fridge for a really long time.
The burn about people that smell like that is epic…. I have an extraordinary sense of smell so I can definitely understand the quip! Keep on cooking El Cook! You make this grandmother laugh and cook even more delicious foods!
Jose, thank you so much for these videos! Your shorts help me find new recipes with fresh ingredients, and you’re always teaching me new ways of making cooking even easier! Also… You remind me so much of my pseudo-brother in another state! Feels like home, watching your vids!
I have really enjoyed your short, I try not to miss one because I love what you are doing and don't change who you are and what you are doing. Blessings on all the future accomplishments.
very similar to my mom's recipe! she had me soak the cucumbers in mild saltwater for about 20 minutes before rinsing and adding the rest of the ingredients. little vinegar, soy sauce, honey, lots of garlic and green onion, and some 고춧가루 (korean red pepper flakes)😋
Logan??? I’m not a fan of cucumber, but I’m trying to g to get more nutrients in my diet and cucumber is good for that, so if you can point me in the direction of anyone who can make cucumber taste good!!!
if you use persian or english cucumbers, it's crunchier! I also like to brine them first for like 10-15 minutes, then rinse and crush em in my hand to remove as much water as I can before adding them to the sauce (the english/persian varieties won't turn to mush when you crush em). I also like to add baby shrimp as a garnish

Finally, finally someone smart enough to use a big enough jar. This is amazing. I’ve used this recipe for a while like just smashing the cucumbers into bigger pieces and it’s been around for a while but it’s so delicious. I’m gonna do it thank you. You’re the best.
Dude! Newer fan, not big on interwebs... But i must say sir, you are rad! Your authenticity is amazing! Your unique genuine chillness is hella refreshing! Thank you kindly 🙏
Could your older grandmother eat this? Is it spicy and hot? When we are older, our mouths can’t tolerate that much hot and spicy. I’m your grandmothers age and it looks delicious. I love, love your content and your grandmothers is or would be proud.❤️
This recipe yes... you can use less of the chili oil... the one he used is the Trader Joe's chili onion crisp. It's more crunchy, oniony than it is spicy. It's a mild to medium spicy at best. You can stretch out the heat if it's still to spicy for you. Add the chili crisp to another jar.. add a tone more dehyrated onion flakes and a third more dehyrated garlic. A tad more oil, but not much. Any neutral oil, just not olive oil as the flavor does not mesh well with the flavors... ❤❤❤ hope this helps. If you search Logan amd cumbers here on UA-cam you'll get his channel. On the shorts tab he has over 25 recipes. Lots to choose from that are not spicy at all. With basic ingredients ❤❤❤❤
I am growing long Japanese style cucumbers, bringing in several a day and eating every kind of cucumber salad. This one is my favorite, it’s so good. I might just keep up with the harvests now!
This may sound weird but I've seen this recipe but the cucumbers are lightly smashed first, and it actually makes a difference imo. I don't know how or why but it tastes so much better.
Does the smashing help reduce the water content of the cucumber? A couple other commenters recommended salting the slices for 10-20 minutes and rinsing before they go in the jar because it makes the marinade take better. Same principle?
SEE!? No one uses Kitchen Scissors to cut Green Onions! Only that ONE anime girl! Replier: "Oh, It's really common for people to use Kitchen Scissors." Me: "WHERE!? Not on Cooking Tutorials! Not even on Japanese Cooking tutorials!"
Thank you for teaching me another use for rice vinegar!! I generally only use it when I’m making chicken; either baking in oven or boiling on stove top. Keeps the chicken tender, especially if using frozen chicken. Just came across you yesterday, and I enjoy your videos. Sure, stuff like this takes time; but far surpasses anything you can buy in the store. Less crap, more natural.
I literally just made this after saving this video a while ago and my first response was: “OH DAMN. That’s good! Why the hell did I wait so long?!” Thank you for the amazingly tasty and simple recipes on your channel. You are just fantastic and can’t wait for more recipes from you!

Thank you for not shaking those cucumber slices in a tiny container like all the other videos that I’ve seen
I know I hated that it looked so excessively difficult. And the size of the container too, it barely had any space left for the dressing and shaking.

I'm wondering why no one is doing this step. Gotta get rid of the excess water first.
What does soaking in the water do just curious? So whenever I make this is the best 😆
@@BluDimeNailz the saltyness draws out moisture by osmosis
@@BluDimeNailz it kind of mellowed the cucumber flavor out when i did it and pulled some of the bitter notes as well :)
@@nothisiskas that’s good to know I’ll for sure do that step ! 👍🏼 can’t wait to make this soon
If you coat the cucumber slices in salt for 10-20 minutes, and rinse before they go in the jar, the sauce seems to stick more.
Yeah cuz the salt pulls moisture out of the cucumbers so there's more room for the marinade
thanks for the extra tip

Thank you, Jose for all these awesome recipes my cooking has improved thanks to you brother.
I love your videos, man. You seem a lot passionate about your craft, which is priceless.
I've made this recipe 4 times since I discovered it a week ago! A huge hit with the family!❤
I just made it and ate the lot immediately.
I remember my mom making this when I was young… actually so good. Thanks for igniting a trip down memory lane
I love how you use green onion in some of your recipes. I'm gonna try this recipe thank you
I tried your recipe and whoa. I make it almost everyday
Gonna try this tomorrow for my break food at work. We have a surplus of cucumbers so this is a god send. TBC
Asian cucumber salad is my favorite thing right now this summer.
Love watching you cook!
I made this on Sunday! Really refreshing
You brighten my day too, and love your variety of foods you bring to us, thank you!
I went to the store just to get these ingredients
Thank you Jose 🤙
I love cucumbers too..this is one of my favorites 🤤😋🤤🤤

For the sauce left in the cup, you can put some sesame sauce in and shake it, now you have a perfect sauce for some noodles.
Love you're video's thanks for keeping it simple
I also chop up a handful of crystalized ginger. It rehydrates in all that good sauce and it's like grownup Skittles.
Also, nuts make it very nice. I once tried it in an Asian restaurant and it was phenomenal.
