Cut cucumbers and dress them with vinegar and soy sauce. It’s a cucumber salad that’s popular in Guam – especially at parties. We suggest adding some sliced hot pepper to jazz things up.
What you will need:
3 large cucumbers, cut into 2 inch wedges
1 small onion chopped
¾ cup soy sauce
¼ cup vinegar, palm vinegar is preferred but cider vinegar will do, too
1 large bowl
1 wooden spoon
kitchen plastic wrap
Pinch of salt and pepper
1 small onion chopped
¾ cup soy sauce
¼ cup vinegar, palm vinegar is preferred but cider vinegar will do, too
1 large bowl
1 wooden spoon
kitchen plastic wrap
Pinch of salt and pepper
Preparation and directions:
Combine soy sauce and vinegar in large bowl. Add cucumbers, onions, salt, and pepper. Mix and toss well. Cover bowl with plastic wrap. Chill for at least one hour. Then serve.
Helpful hint: Nelly prefers to use seedless (also known as burpless, hothouse or English) cucumbers for this dish. If "regular" cucumbers are being used, it helps to first cut the vegetables lengthwise and then lightly scrape off most of the seeds and pulp before cutting the cucumbers into wedges. Don't worry about being too neat about scraping everything off. This reduces the water content in the dish.
