This Asian Cucumber Salad comes together in minutes
This fast and fresh salad is a snap to make and a perfect side for your favorite Asian dish. Serve it with Hoisin-Glazed Salmon, Asian-Glazed Drumsticks, or the fantastic Sesame-Crusted Ahi pictured here – I’ll share the recipe later this week.

Quick and easy Asian cucumber salad
Persian cucumbers add extra crispness and don’t require peeling making this salad as easy as it is refreshing.

Although delicious as soon as it’s made, I love it even more after the flavors have had some time to mingle. Because of that, this is a great make-ahead salad – just leave it in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
