Ingredients

  • 1 pound cucumbers
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/3 cup sugar

Instructions

  1. Halve the cucumbers, scrape out the seeds with a spoon, and thinly slice on a diagonal.
  2. Combine the cucumber slices with 1/2 teaspoons of salt in a bowl and let it rest for a few minutes.
  3. Stir the rice vinegar, water, and sugar in a medium sized glass jar until the sugar is dissolved.

  4. Rinse and drain the cucumber slices, add to the vinegar mixture, cover the jar with a lid and mix.

  5. Refrigerate for at least one hour (it will taste best overnight) before serving and eat within a week. Always transfer the sweet cucumbers from the jar to a serving dish with a clean utensil.
