I sampled this last week at a local Chinese restaurant. I fell in love with it at first bite. I begged the bartender (cooks son) for the recipe and all he could tell me was what went into it. I played around with it a bit and came up with what I think tastes about as close as I can get.
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2-1 teaspoon korean red pepper powder (i used 1 tsp.)
2 medium cucumbers, peeled and cut into 2-inch x 1/2-inch matchsticks (english seedless)
1 medium white onion, cut in half, then cut into very thin slices
2 green onions, chopped
Directions:
1. In a large jar, mix salt, vinegar, sugar, garlic and red pepper powder together. Stir thoroughly. Add cucumber and onions. Mix well. Refrigerate 3-4 hours or until flavors develope to your taste.
