Recipe': Shaolin Cucumbers

This is an extremely simple and somewhat quick dish you can whip up to serve as a snack, or as an appetizer to an Asian-inspired meal. Minimal ingredients, and very tasty. If your heat tolerance for spicy-ness is low, you can always substitute the Sriracha sauce with Tobasco, or another pepper based sauce of your choice. You may also want to add sprinkles of sesame seed.

Ingredients:

1 Fresh Cucumber, sliced

1/8 Cup Distilled White Vinegar

1/8 Cup Soy Sauce

2 Teaspoons Freshly Ground Sea Salt

2 Teaspoons Ground Pepper

1 Tbsp. Sriracha Hot Sauce

½ Tbsp. Ground Ginger

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients in a bowl or plastic container, stirring until cucumber is well coated with a mix of sauce. Marinade 2 to 24 hours in refrigerator. Serve chilled. Serves 1-2 people per cucumber.
