6 Reviews of Japanese Cucumber Salad

From: Izzblizz

On Apr 13, 2008

This was good, but both my boyfriend and I thought the soy sauce taste was stronger than what we get in Japanese restaurants (maybe Japanese soy sauce would make it more authentic, we just used Kikkoman). Next time think would reduce the soy sauce or try a Japanese soy sauce. But overall very good!

    This was very easy to put together and tasty too! I used 2 small cucumbers which equaled 2 cups and toasted my sesame seeds in the micro for about a minute stiring every 20 seconds. It was a little salty for me so next time I will eliminate the salt and just use the soy sauce. Thank you Sharon!

    These were very tasty. I think I may have sliced my cucumbers too thin. I'll try slicing them thicker next time. Not too thick though but not as thin as paper. I tried toasted sesame seeds I had on hand and I think I'd rather have the regular ones. I'll be making this one often.

    This is a very nice salad. I used a naturally brewed soya sauce and dark sesame oil. I found this to be a bit too sweet for my taste and would add less sugar next time. Thanks for posting.

    Easy and tasty — an unbeatable combination! I served this at a dinner party with international guests (from Cameroon and China), and there wasn't a morsel left at the end of the meal. It was a real hit, and I'll definitely be making it again. Thanks for posting this!
