For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing. To prevent the cucumber from becoming watery, you can lightly salt the slices and let them sit for 10 minutes before adding them to the salad. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as radishes or snow peas. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped peanuts for added texture and visual appeal. This salad is best served chilled. It can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
