Zubereitung von Sweet Spicy Cucumbers
- Thinly slice 2 pounds of English cucumbers and place in a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of salt, toss gently, and set aside for 15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- While the cucumbers are resting, thinly slice 1 medium red onion and 1 large red bell pepper. Place in a separate bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients: 1/2 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1-2 teaspoons sriracha (or more, to taste), and 1 teaspoon grated ginger.
- After 15 minutes, rinse the cucumbers thoroughly under cold water and drain well. Gently squeeze out any excess water.
- Combine the drained cucumbers, sliced red onion, and red bell pepper with the dressing. Toss gently to coat all the vegetables evenly.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Even better if you let it sit overnight! These cucumbers will last for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
