1 Review of Gingered Cucumber Salad With Scallops

I had somewhat of a catastrophe in the kitchen when I attempted to make this. My fridge has an uneven temp and half of my cuke was frozen. It still tasted fine, so I used it. Then when I went to shake tumeric on the onions as they sautéed, the lid fell off and most of what was in the container fell in. I decided to serve the cucumbers as a cold salad instead and didn't continue with the rest of the recipe. Just so you know, the marinade and cukes are wonderful on their own. I followed the marinade / dressing recipe using seasoned rice vinegar, only adding a bit more ginger (I used minced, not fresh) than the recipe specified. I do intend to make the recipe as intended, but I have to buy more tumeric first since all of it went into the pan with the onions. I'm giving the cucumber/marinade portion of the recipe 5 stars because it was yummy and a great alteration if you don't have shrimp or tumeric or you don't want to cook on the stove. Hope this helps.
