Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp fine-quality dried shrimp such as bdmp or sea emperor brands (optional)
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp nam pla ( asian fish sauce; preferably thai)
2 seedless cucumbers (usually plastic-wrapped; 1 1/2 lb total), halved lengthwise and sliced crosswise 1/8 inch thick
2 small shallots, thinly sliced (2 tbsp)

Directions:

Finely grind shrimp (if using) in a blender until very fluffy, about 1 minute.
Stir together lime juice, sugar, and fish sauce in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved, then add cucumber and shallot, tossing to coat.
Serve salad sprinkled with dried shrimp.
Cooks' notes: Shrimp can be ground 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature. Salad (without shrimp) can be made 1 hour ahead and chilled, covered.
